The image shows a drawing of two women's profiles, each from the shoulders up. Both women face right. The woman in the foreground has distinct facial features with a straight nose, arched eyebrow, and detailed lips. Her hair is styled in curls held back by a headband or ribbon, and she wears a round earring. The second woman, slightly behind the first, has delicate facial features and hair drawn back similarly with a headband or fabric. Both women wear draped garments with visible folds around the neck and shoulders. The drawing is set against a plain background with an aged paper pattern and presented on a larger sheet with a margin.
