Two men are shown from the waist up, sitting next to each other. The man on the left is facing the camera, looking directly ahead. The man on the right is in profile, facing to the left. Both men have dirty faces. The man on the left has a headlamp on his cap that is lit, highlighting his face and casting shadows. He is holding a piece of cloth or paper in one hand and a metal container in the other. The man on the right has his chin resting on his hands, which hold a cylindrical metal container. They are both dressed in work jackets or coats, suggesting they are in a mining environment. The background is dark and shadowy, indicating they are in a low-lit underground area.
