The image shows a drawing of two nude figures. One figure is seated on a chair with legs bent, while the other figure is lying down, partially overlapping with the first. Both figures have their backs facing the viewer. The drawing is in shades of brown, emphasizing the bodies' forms with minimal facial details. A draped cloth covers the lower part of the second figure. The background is plain, focusing on the figures. The drawing style is loose and expressive, accentuating the human form with broad strokes and shading.
