The image is a line drawing with two figures in the foreground. The first figure is a man in a dynamic pose, leaning forward, covering his face with his right arm, and holding a spear in his left hand. He is adorned with a necklace, feathered headpiece, loincloth, and appears muscular. The second figure is lying face down, with only the upper body visible. Sparse vegetation surrounds them, including a tree and shrubs. In the background, there is a building with a pitched roof and a group of people.
