The image depicts two full-length figures. The person on the right is standing with one hand on their hip and the other resting on a table that is covered with a patterned cloth. They are wearing a suit of armor, complete with a pleated skirt and a feathered hat. Their facial features include a mustache and a pointed beard, and they have short hair that is mostly covered by the hat. The person on the left stands with their arms by their sides, dressed in a similar style but less ornate suit with a short skirt and hose. Their facial features are more youthful, with a smooth, rounded face and short hair. In the background, there is a heavy curtain draping down and a coat of arms displayed on the wall. On the table next to the standing figure is a decorated helmet adorned with a large plume of feathers, and there are small crown symbols arranged on the tablecloth. The floor is tiled with a geometric pattern. Above the figures are labeled boxes with names.
