The image depicts a sepia-toned drawing of two people reading. The drawing is rendered in brown pencil or charcoal on beige paper. Two heads are leaning together, both looking down. The person on the left appears to be leaning on the other person's shoulder. The person on the right has a beard and mustache. The artist's signature appears in the lower-left corner. The style is impressionistic with smudges of shading. The background is a plain beige color. The overall mood appears contemplative. The title of the piece is "Reading" and it is by Eugène Carrière.
