About this work

A red chalk drawing shows a kneeling female figure with loose curly hair, wrapped in drapery, while her arm is shackled by a chain extending from the upper left. Rough rocks and loosely hatched shading fill the lower right and ground, with faint sketched lines suggesting a sea beyond.
