This print shows two overlapping profiles of faces, both looking to the right. In the front is the profile of a woman, with closed eyes, an open mouth, and long, flowing hair. Behind her is a man with pronounced cheekbones, deep-set, closed eyes, thin lips, and short, closely cropped hair. Both people have pale skin, and their shoulders seem to be nude. The background is blank beige paper, and there is a small, handwritten signature in the bottom left corner.
