The image shows two sketches on gray paper. The left sketch depicts two men in 17th-century attire, one raising his mask and the other holding a sword and wearing a mask. The man on the right appears to be lunging at the other. Sketches of a mask and a sword lie on the ground. The right sketch is a close-up of a woman's head from the shoulders up, shown in profile, facing left, with her hair pulled back. The woman's head on the right is drawn in greater detail than the men on the left. The sketches have rough, torn edges. The image appears to be a historical piece.
