The image features a charcoal sketch of two figures. One figure is shown from the mid-back to the upper thighs, standing slightly angled to the right with the head turned away. The hair is short and sketchily outlined. The second figure is partially visible, showing an arm and part of the torso from the side, positioned closely to the first person. There are no visible clothing, jewelry, or objects held by either figure. The background is plain and unadorned, emphasizing the figures as the central focus of the composition.
