The image depicts two individuals shown from head to toe. The person on the left is standing, with their side facing the viewer. They have chin-length hair and appear to be wearing glasses. They are dressed in a long dark coat and pants. Their hands are not visible. The person on the right is facing slightly towards the left and appears to be standing as well. Only the outline of their facial features and hair can be seen. Their jacket has a subtle point indicating that their hands might be behind their back. The background features faint lines that could depict a window or frame with a table or desk on the left side, on top of which rests a few indistinct objects. The overall setting appears sketched with minimal detail, and the background is light.
