This image shows a woman in a long coat, standing with her back to the viewer. She's wearing a hat and gloves, and her coat is open at the front. The drawing is done in black ink on a beige background, with a few visible pencil marks. The woman's face is not visible, but her posture suggests she's looking out at something.
