The image shows two sketches of a child's head and shoulders. One sketch is a front-facing view, capturing the upper body from the top of the head to just below the shoulders. The child is looking directly outward, with softly detailed facial features including eyes, nose, and mouth. The hair is short and unkempt, depicted with textured strokes. The child wears a garment outlined rather than detailed, and there are no accessories. The second sketch is a profile view of the same child, showing only the head with minimal outlines and shading. The background is a plain, creamy sheet of paper signed 'ARI 1898'.
