The image shows two men standing side by side, with their full bodies clearly depicted. The man on the left is standing upright with his head turned to the side. He has short, dark hair and is clean-shaven. He is dressed in a knee-length overcoat, pants, and striped socks, with dress shoes on his feet. His hands are clasped behind his back. The man on the right is hunched slightly forward, with his head down, and is wearing a wide-brimmed hat that obscures his facial features. He is dressed in a long coat, pants, and holds his hands in front of him, with one hand gesturing outward. Around the two men are foliage and some large vegetables laid out in the foreground. In the background, there is a wall with two open windows. A woman is visible in the upper window, leaning on the windowsill with her chin resting on her hand, looking out. Above the illustration, the title "LES AMIS" is printed.
