The image is an illustrated caricature showing two women engaged in conversation. They have different facial features and are dressed in dark, period-appropriate clothing. The woman on the left is hunched with her hands clasped, while the woman on the right holds a wicker basket in her left arm. They are set against an urban background with buildings and a crowd of people.
