A vertically oriented print in grainy black ink depicts two women with light skin tones in an interior. In the center, a woman in a dark dress sits on a chair at a piano facing our right. Behind her, another woman looks toward a music stand. Dense, rough hatching creates heavy shadows throughout. In the background, sketchy outlines of wall frames and furniture emerge from the grainy texture.
