The image shows two men in traditional attire. The man on the left is kneeling, with his full body visible in the image, while the man on the right is standing, also showing his full body. The kneeling man has a prominent mustache and is wearing a headpiece that appears to be a turban. His clothing consists of an embroidered jacket, layered over a shirt, and he holds a long firearm upright in his hands. Around his waist is a sash that holds a large knife or sword. The standing man also has a mustache and wears a fez. He is dressed in a dark coat over a striped shirt, with a visible belt of ammunition. He too holds a firearm and has a larger, sheathed weapon resting at his side. The background is a textured, plain wall with decorative patterns engraved into it. There is a visible signature or studio label at the bottom of the card, reading "Hendricks & Co," along with an address in Allegheny, PA.
