Pencil sketch of a nude male figure twisting and tumbling backward, arms raised and legs kicked up, on cream paper.

A loose pencil or conté sketch on cream paper shows a nude figure tumbling backward in a twisting pose, with arms raised and legs flung high. Quick, soft contour lines describe the anatomy, and the lower body fades into pale, unfinished space.
