The image is a drawing depicting a person standing upright. The individual is facing forward with one hand raised to the middle of their chest and the other by their side, holding onto draped fabric. They have soft facial features, loose hair, and are wrapped in a long piece of fabric. They hold a small item in one hand. The background is dark and textured, with brush strokes, and the artist's signature, "F. Rathgenais," is visible in the lower right corner.
