The image features two sketched illustrations on two separate pages. On the left page is an illustration of a woman sitting down, holding an orange. She is dressed in a long-sleeved outfit with rolled-up sleeves and an apron, and has medium-length wavy hair. She is surrounded by a basket of oranges. The background is textured. On the right page is an illustration of a woman standing on a beam over water, with her upper body extended forward and arms outstretched. She has short curly hair and wears a skirt. Several figures in the background are observing her, with indistinct architectural elements around them.
