The image shows a painted depiction of two figures, both visible from the waist up. The central figure is in a frontal position with a calm expression, wearing a crown and a robe adorned with regal patterns. The second figure, slightly behind the central one, leans in from the left. Both figures have their hands in front, with the central figure's hands positioned near their chest. The background is a painted curtain or drapery in shades of red and green. The image is framed and mounted on a plain paper. Any inscriptions or text at the bottom are visible but not readable in this context.
