It depicts a standing nude female figure with her back to the viewer, in a three-quarter view to the left. Her left leg is slightly bent back, while the left hand is raised up and worked to the wrist. Right hand extended down and back, holds a piece of cloth touching the ground. The figure is flanked on either side by two studies of body parts. On the left the study deals with the back of the body, from the waist to the calves, while the one on the right shows the back of a hand holding cloth.
