Black and white image of two men digging with shovels. The man on the left bends at the waist with head down. He holds a shovel with both hands. The man on the right stands slightly behind and to the right of the first man. He grips the handle of a shovel with his left hand at shoulder-height. He uses his right elbow to brace himself against his right hip. The men are shirtless and wear dark shorts. They both have short hair. The ground around them is bare with rocks visible. A field and a cloudy sky are in the background. The image appears to be a sketch or engraving.
