The image depicts two individuals from the upper chest upwards. The man stands slightly behind the woman, with his arm wrapped around her shoulder, holding her hand. Their faces are close together. The man has a prominent nose and lips, and deep set eyes. He wears a cap that casts a shadow on his face. The woman has smooth, delicate features with long hair falling straight, framing her face. She wears a modest blouse, while the man is dressed in a work shirt and a hat similar to a train conductor's cap. In the background, there is a large steam locomotive train, and another figure is on the left side, seeming to work near the train tracks. The setting includes a heavily shaded landscape with trees, and a sky that suggests nighttime or low light. The image is in black and white.
