A Man Seen from Behind, Rising on Clouds

William Blake, probably c. 1794

The image is a sketch of a person in a reclining position. The individual is facing away from the viewer, with their right arm extended outward and the left arm barely visible. Facial features are not detailed, and the person's hair is of medium length with strands falling to the sides. The clothing is not clearly defined, blending with the swirling lines in the drawing. The sketch is simple, lacking visible jewelry or objects. The background consists of unadorned, textured paper.
