Two full-body figures are depicted in a room. One person is facing the viewer, the other has their back turned. The person facing away has prominent features and short dark hair, wearing a long coat. The other figure holds an open umbrella, wearing formal attire with neatly styled hair. The background shows a simple interior with a wall and a door. The illustration is monochromatic, detailed with hatching for texture.
