The image is a sketch showing two figures in the foreground and several figures in the background. The larger part of the body is shown of both foreground figures, who appear to be in a standing and interacting position. The person on the left in the foreground displays a facial expression with a mustache and short hair that is slightly unkempt. He appears to be wrapped in a draped garment or coat. The person behind him appears to be holding him, and is wearing a cap and uniform with a visible belt. In the background, there is a faintly sketched group of people facing the same direction, potentially a firing squad, with long rifles. The background is indistinct but suggests an outdoor setting with sparse details.
