This sketch shows a woman in a long red coat with a high collar, walking while holding a cane. The coat is simple but bold, with clean black outlines. Her hair is pulled back, and her legs are long and straight. The artist signed it “Piment” in the corner—likely a nickname or play on words. The loose, confident lines suggest quick, sure strokes.
