Black and white drawing of a seated man and woman in a room. The woman sits in a chair with her back to the viewer, wearing a dress with a bustle and a shawl, her dark curled hair tied up in a bun. The man sits on the right, in a rolling office chair with a curved back and armrests, wearing a white jacket and dark tie, with one leg crossed over the other, reading a large, open book. The background shows a wall with wainscoting and a large framed picture hanging on it; on the right, a fireplace mantel with a lamp. The image is captioned with quotation marks around a line of text reading "You are really picturesque, my love". The image is drawn in a cross-hatch style with heavy shading and lines.
