Colour pastel sketch of Betty Boothroyd. The sketch is roughly drawn so the image does not have fine details. Boothroyd is an older woman with short grey curled hair, and stands in the Speaker's long ceremonial black and gold robes with a white lace stock tie. One hand hangs by her side while the other is raised and rests against a long gold object that stands vertically from the floor. The background is roughly sketched in red and brown with a large open doorway visible.
