There is a drawing of a figure sharpening a sword with a grindstone. The image depicts a caricature-like character engaged in the act of sharpening a long sword. The character is bent over the grindstone, focused on its task. Opposite to the character, there are posters on a wall with the word "CANDIDAT" visible. The setting appears to be an indoor space with subtle shading indicating depth and the wooden structure. Shadows are used to give a sense of dimension to the scene.
