This is a drawing of a donkey resting beside a seated figure. The drawing depicts a donkey saddled with a blanket, standing to the right of a seated figure in a robe. The figure appears to be sitting on a ledge or bench, facing the donkey, which is looking down towards them. The artwork is rendered with fine lines, creating detailed textures on both the figure's clothing and the donkey's fur. The background is minimally detailed, drawing attention to the central subjects. Geometric lines and shapes can be seen drawn over the composition.
