The image is an artistic line drawing featuring two nude upper body figures in a seated position. The figure on the left is shown from the waist up, looking downward and slightly to the side with locked fingers under the chin and curly hair adorned with a wreath. The figure on the right is seated and turned slightly towards the other figure, with an arm resting on their leg. Both figures have detailed facial features and are depicted in simple line work. Below them, an object resembling a sculpture or mask with exaggerated facial features is shown on the ground. Abstract lines in the background suggest a landscape.
