This sketch shows a woman in a loose, patterned dress with bold red and black shapes. She holds a small purse in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Her hair is short and neat, and she wears simple shoes. To the right, two quick sketches of dresses are drawn—one with a zipper detail. The drawing has a rough, fast style with loose lines and smudges. The artist’s handwriting is visible in the corner, and the page has a number "68" in the top-left.
