A large blue pencil figure drawing of a crouching figure seen from behind and slightly above — the composition dominated by the large rounded hip mass and the feet extending toward the viewer at the lower center. This is a compression pose: the body folded, the hip high, the feet visible below.
The hip at the upper portion of the composition is the most generously described element — a large curved form that the blue pencil traces in confident single strokes. Below the hip, the body compresses: the thighs visible, the lower legs descending, the feet at the very bottom.
The feet are the most specifically described elements despite the compressed view: the toes of both feet visible, each individually indicated, the viewing angle showing the soles slightly as the feet rest on the ground. This underfoot view is unusual in the collection.
The head at the upper portion is barely present — a rounded form at the top of the composition, the face turned entirely away. The body is the subject here; the individual is secondary.
