The image shows two full-body views of a person facing away from the viewer. The individual stands with feet slightly apart and wears a wide-brimmed hat with feathers on top, along with curly hair peeking out. They are draped in a cloak with fur trim, and wear breeches tied below the knee, stockings, and pointed shoes. The person appears to be holding a cane or a stick in both images. The background is minimal, emphasizing the line drawing.
