The image is a drawing depicting two men from the knees up. The man on the left is in profile, standing upright and facing slightly toward the other man while holding a sheet of paper. He appears to be wearing a dark coat and knee-length breeches with stockings. He has short hair, parted to one side with a prominent brow. The man on the right faces the left man with an exaggerated pose, leaning slightly backward and has a plump form. He is wearing traditional Chinese attire with a topknot hairstyle. His clothing is loose-fitting, consisting of a long-sleeved garment and simple footwear. Behind them is a detailed background that includes a decorative screen. There is no visible jewelry or additional objects being held by either man in the scene.
