The image shows two men engaged in a toast. The man on the left is fully visible from head to toe, standing with one arm extended, holding a glass. He has short, curly hair and a distinctive facial expression with his mouth open. He wears a dark jacket over a light shirt, and dark pants. The man on the right is shown from a side angle and is partially obscured, slouched over a wooden table while holding his own glass. His hair is also dark and curly, but his face is not visible. He is dressed in a shirt and plaid pants. On the table between them, a pitcher is visible. The background has a simple, lightly shaded design, possibly outdoors, with a faint horizon and a blossomed tree or bush depicted. Text at the top reads "CROQUIS VARIÉS," and there is more text at the bottom as a caption for the illustration.
