The image features two full-body figures drawn in a minimalist style. The figure on the left is sitting with her body slightly turned towards the viewer, showing her legs and feet. She has long hair, and her eyes are depicted as closed or downcast. The figure on the right is standing with one arm raised above his head in a dynamic pose, facing the seated figure. The drawing includes minimal facial details. The background is plain, with a stamp in the bottom right corner that reads "ARCHIVES MATISSE RD."
