The image shows two individuals' upper bodies, from the waist up. One figure, on the left, is standing and embracing the second figure. The person on the left has a neutral expression, short hair, and wears a long coat with a high collar. They also wear a large top hat with a horizontal brim. The figure on the right leans into the embrace and has closed eyes, subtle facial features, and loose fabric around the shoulders and arms. They hold a circular object against their body. The background is plain with a textured shade.
