The image shows two people partially visible. The woman is sitting with her arms around the man, who is facing away from the camera. The woman has long, wavy hair, strong brows, slightly parted lips, and wears a large bracelet on her wrist. The man's back is facing the camera, with his head resting against her shoulder. Both appear to be unclothed from the waist up. They are surrounded by walls with various writings and graffiti in the background.
