A large blue pencil figure drawing — a seated figure seen in pure profile from the right, the face looking left, the body in a relaxed seated posture. The profile is among the most classically composed in the figure drawing series: the face describing a strong profile line from the brow through the nose and lips to the chin, the body below following the characteristic S-curve of the seated form.
The face is described with the blue pencil's characteristic clarity: the brow line, the nose in profile, the lips, the chin — each element in its proper structural relationship. The eye is the most specifically described, the brow above it and the lash line visible even at the small scale of the profile.
At the left background, diagonal marks suggest a wall or the edge of a studio prop — the most environmental context mark in the blue pencil figure group.
The feet at the lower left are described with the characteristic toe attention, the sitting posture apparent in the way the foot rests against the ground.
