The image depicts a black and white drawing of a somber scene. A woman lies on the ground, and another woman kneels beside her, holding her. The woman on the ground appears to be deceased, with her eyes closed and her body limp. The woman kneeling beside her wears a head covering and a long-sleeved garment, and her facial expression appears to be one of grief or despair. The background of the drawing features a rocky terrain with some lines suggesting water or a body of some sort. The overall mood of the image is one of sadness and mourning. The drawing is signed in the bottom-right corner.
