The image is a highly detailed black and white line drawing of a woman's face, emphasized by prominent shading and highlights created with intricate lines. The woman's hair is a striking feature, drawn with numerous fine lines that convey texture and volume. It falls around her face and shoulders, with a distinct and thick fringe (or bangs) covering her forehead and extending just above her eyes. The hair is depicted with a mix of solid black and white to reflect light and shadow, giving it a realistic and dynamic appearance.

Her eyes are wide and expressive, with meticulous detailing of the lashes and irises. The lashes are long, curving upwards and outwards, providing a dramatic look. Her eyes are framed with well-defined eyebrows that arch naturally. The irises are shaded to give depth, and the pupils are clearly centered. The woman's gaze is direct, looking straight ahead, creating a captivating and engaging expression.

The nose is delicately rendered with clean lines, capturing the contours and subtle shadows of the bridge and nostrils. The lips are full and slightly parted, with detailed line work that shows the texture and shape of both the upper and lower lips. The lips have a glossy appearance created by the use of white spaces, which suggests light reflecting off them.

The overall linework is precise and crisp, with varying line thickness used effectively to depict different textures and depth. There is no background in the image, making the woman's face the sole focus. The absence of color enhances the attention to detail in the drawing, highlighting the artist's skill in capturing the subject's features and expressions solely through black and white lines.
