This grayscale photograph shows two children sitting closely together. The boy on the right has his arm around the girl on the left. The boy has short, dark hair and a neutral expression as he looks out at us. He is dressed in a dark suit with a white shirt and a black bow tie. The girl has light-colored hair styled away from her face. Her eyes are closed, and her mouth looks partially open. She is wearing a light-colored dress with a necklace featuring a round pendant. Her limbs are very thin. The background is plain. The photo is surrounded by an ornate, gold-toned decorative frame.
