The series of black and white photographs shows two nude men wrestling. Both men are muscular and have short, light-colored hair. The sequence captures different positions as they grapple, including standing, lifting, and on the ground positions. They are wrestling on a mat or canvas with a backdrop of dark cloth screens and a fence visible in the background, suggesting an outdoor environment. The fence casts shadows on the ground.
