This is a drawing of two wooden mannequin figures. The upper half features two wooden mannequins, one shown from the back and the other from the front. The figure at the top shows the rear view of a mannequin with a long dark braid extending from the head, while the lower section presents a frontal view of another mannequin with a similarly styled headpiece. The mannequins are articulated, with visible joints at the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. The background is a plain, neutral color, keeping the focus on the details of the mannequins.
