The image is an old pencil sketch of a person, possibly in theatrical costume, which appears to be drawn on a page from a notebook. The figure is standing in profile facing left. They wear a cape with a dramatic collar and a large, flamboyant headdress with many plumes. The costume has a historical feel to it, reminiscent of 17th or 18th-century European dress. The drawing includes grid lines suggesting the artist was paying attention to proportions while sketching the figure. On the bottom right, there is some text that seems to be "No. 92" followed by a name or title, possibly "Talleyrand," and another word that appears to be "Après Nature" suggesting the sketch was made from life or a direct observation. In the top right corner, there is another set of writing, which is not fully legible, but includes "5P" and "28," perhaps referencing page numbers or notes related to the composition. The sketch showcases considerable detail despite its faded appearance, indicating the artist's skill in capturing the form and flow of the clothing.
