Artist

The image shows two men standing side by side in full body view. On the left, they face forward, and on the right, they are seen from the back. Both men wear similar outfits with dark blazers, white trousers, white caps, and dark shoes. Their facial features cannot be clearly seen due to the angle and lighting. Both men have their hands behind their backs in the right part of the image. The background consists of trees and natural earth with some low vegetation. The image has a sepia tone and handwritten text on the right side, giving it a vintage feel.
