The image shows two individuals from the waist up. The person on the left is facing mostly forward with a slight inclination toward the viewer's right, eyes closed, featuring smooth facial features, with long hair flowing over the shoulders, and partly covered by a veil. They hold a platter with a detailed, sculpted head on it. The individual on the right faces forward and slightly towards the left, with wide, expressive eyes looking directly at the viewer. Their hair is styled up with a flower-like accessory placed an inch above the forehead, wearing a garment with flowing sleeves. The background appears simple, with no distinct features, enhancing the focus on the individuals in the foreground.
