The image depicts two figures standing waist up. One figure is on the left side and the other on the right side. The person on the left is in a military stance with distinct attire, including a tall helmet with a plume, epaulettes, and medals. Their face has a caricatured appearance, with a prominent nose. They wear dark clothing with light gloves and boots and have a sword by their side. The person on the right is in a loose nightshirt, yawning with eyes partially closed and stretching one arm up while scratching their head with the other hand. They have short, slightly messy hair and sideburns. A bay-like object is partially visible near the person on the right, suggesting a piece of furniture. The background is plain, emphasizing the two foreground figures.
