The image shows two full-body views of a figure, dressed identically, captured in a black and white illustration. Both figures are in profile view, facing away from each other, with one arm extended outward. The figures wear loose, knee-length pants and a long coat draped over one shoulder, fastened at the waist with a belt tied into a bow. A broad-brimmed hat adorned with a large feather tops the outfit. The headgear is prominently detailed. The illustration places the figures against a plain background, enclosed within a simple rectangular border, with no additional objects or scenery.
