The image shows two individuals with their upper bodies visible. A woman stands on the left, holding the hem of her dress, while a man kneels before her, grasping her dress with one hand and holding a cane in the other. The woman has curly hair tied with a ribbon and delicate facial features. She wears a dress with a light-colored blouse and a dark skirt. The man has slightly longer, curled hair and is dressed in an elegant, striped coat with blue hues and tan trousers. He looks up at the woman with intent focus. A bouquet of flowers is present. The background includes a clear sky with some clouds, a tree, and part of a structure with a striped awning, suggesting an outdoor setting near a building.
