The image depicts two individuals on a cobblestone street. One person, a man, is seated and grooming a dog in his lap. The man has short, slicked-back hair and wears a short-sleeved shirt, a vest, and loose pants. An elderly woman stands nearby, wearing a shawl and a bonnet, looking concerned. She is clasping her hands together. In the background are buildings and a sign post near the seated man. The sky is shaded.
