The image is an etching featuring two human figures outlined with minimal lines on a dark background. One figure appears to be an adult and the other a child, seated or in close proximity. The adult figure is shown in profile with indications of a head covering or hairstyle, and an arm at rest. The child is also in profile, facing the adult, with a round head and delicate facial features. Both figures are draped in implied fabric. The background has slight texture, possibly from scratches or etching marks. In the top right corner, the names "Milton Avery" are inscribed.
