The image depicts two figures positioned slightly side by side from about the knees up. The figure on the left is wearing a head covering and robes, with facial features that are not distinctly detailed. The figure on the right has more defined features, wearing a headscarf and loosely draped clothing. Both figures are holding objects in their hands. The background of the image is plain, presented in a sketch-like style with no distinct features, focusing attention on the two figures. The entire composition is rendered in a monochromatic color scheme, likely using etching techniques.
