They have prominent facial features, long curly hair, and are wearing 17th or 18th-century clothing with a high lace collar and a draped sash. The frame is elaborate with two circular medallions on each side. The background is plain textured, with an additional small oval frame at the bottom center showing the sea with rays of light.
