The image shows two men in exaggerated side profiles. Both lean towards each other with bent knees. One man has his arms tucked under a cape, while the other has his hands in his pockets. The men have caricature-like facial features with pronounced noses and thin mouths. They wear sophisticated yet exaggerated attire, including a cape and a coat, each topped with a tall hat. The clothing suggests an older fashion style with striped trousers. There are no visible accessories. The background features a sketched cityscape.
