The image displays the upper body of a person in a seated position, drawn in profile. The individual appears relaxed with their head slightly tilted forward, closed eyes, and a hint of a mustache. The neatly styled hair is combed to the side, and the person is wearing a high-collared garment, potentially a suit or coat. They are depicted holding a violin against their shoulder, with the bow held in their hand. The background is plain, focusing on the subject of the drawing.
