The image shows a sketch of two individuals seated closely together, one slightly in front with the other slightly behind and to the side holding a large fan. The person in front has short, straight hair and distinct facial features, while the other individual has darker hair and a neutral expression. Both are dressed modestly, with the person in front wearing a choker or necklace. The background features simple decorative elements hinting at an interior setting.
