You see a young girl in this drawing. She's gently turned, looking away from us. The artist used soft colors to draw her, which makes her look gentle. The drawing is interesting because it shows the artist's skill with pastels on parchment. This technique, called pastelli pergamentille, is not common, and it's interesting to see how it was used here. You can compare this drawing to the work of artist: Boucher, François.
