The image is a line drawing of a person standing. The individual is hunched forward, leaning on a cane with both hands. They have defined facial features, short curly hair, and are wearing a loose-fitting outfit consisting of a cloak and baggy pants. They also wear a hat and appear to be barefoot. The background is plain with some cross-hatched shading on the lower left side.
