The image displays two full-body illustrations of men standing side by side. They are in a dynamic pose, standing upright with one arm raised and pointing upwards, and the other hand resting on their torso. Both have long hair tucked under hats adorned with feathers, large mustaches, expressive eyes, and are dressed in long coats with buttons, baggy trousers tucked into knee-high boots. The coats flare out slightly at the bottom. The background is plain.
