The image depicts a charcoal sketch of two full-body figures - one adult seated and holding a child on their lap. Both figures are facing slightly away from the viewer. The adult has short, curly hair, and the child has longer, straight or wavy hair resting on the adult's shoulder. They are clothed in draped robes that cover them to the adult's feet. Simple footwear is visible. There are no visible jewelry or objects. The background is plain, emphasizing the figures. Handwritten notes at the bottom mention "Dinner New Society of Artists 1924 Mrs. Meredith Ham," alongside the artist's signature "W.G."
