The image shows a nude figure in a reclining position, with their body fully visible. They are propped up on their right arm, with their head turned to the side and resting on a pillow. The person's long, dark hair partially covers their face. The background features shaded areas resembling drapery or fabric, with subtle architectural details in one corner. The surface beneath the figure appears to be a piece of fabric or a blanket. The image is a black and white etching with strong contrasts and cross-hatching for texture.
