Two people are depicted in the image. One person is captured from mid-back to head, wearing a jacket covered in handwritten texts and drawings. The other person is facing the camera, holding a lit cigarette, obscured in part by the first person's head. The second person has long, light-colored hair, distinct facial features, and wears a light-colored shirt. The background features a textured wall with graffiti-like markings and random drawings, under stark lighting.
