The seated figure wears loose-fitting garments. The other figure is standing behind the seated figure, with a skeletal appearance and an elongated face. This figure has pronounced cheekbones and a hand on the seated individual’s shoulder. There is no visible jewelry. The background is dark with textured crosshatching creating shadows.
