The image shows two individuals shown from the waist up. One person, positioned in front, is focused forward, gripping reins tightly with both hands. The person's face is obscured by shadows and is framed by a broad collar of fur, and they wear a tall, fur hat. The second individual is positioned slightly behind the first, wrapping their arms around the other's waist. They have a clearer facial profile, featuring a pronounced nose and chin, and wear a snug cap and a heavy jacket. The background is a dark, star-dappled sky.
