The image shows a full-body view of a nude male figure seen from the back. The person is in an upright position, leaning slightly forward with their left foot on the ground and the right leg bent, resting on a raised surface. Their left arm is extended upward, holding a vertical pole, while the right arm is bent at the elbow and resting on a rock or elevated area. The figure's head is turned slightly to the left, with shoulder-length wavy hair. No facial features are visible. The background is a landscape with rocks and textured ground. The sketch is monochrome with shading to highlight the figure's muscles and the surroundings.
