The painting depicts a person sitting on a block, dressed in a white shirt and shorts. The figure holds a long, thin object in their right hand, while their left hand grasps a shorter, thicker object. A large, curved shape resembling a sail or a wing is visible behind the person. The background of the painting features a mix of geometric shapes and lines, with various shades of gray and beige hues. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the person appearing lost in thought.
