The image shows two men in a formal setting. One man is standing on a step, extending a small crown towards the other man who is bowing. The man standing has short dark hair, wears spectacles, a white shirt, and a black jacket. The other man is mostly bald with some hair on the sides and back, dressed in a long dark coat and trousers. Both men are on a platform. In the background, several other men in formal attire are seated, watching. The image is depicted in black and white with shading for depth.
