A vertically oriented, predominantly light-toned graphite drawing on paper with a raw bottom edge depicts two bearded men standing over a faint grid. The left figure stands in profile facing right, draped in robes with one hand raised to his chest. Beside him, the second figure faces forward with arms crossed over his waist. Fine lines define shadows in the fabric. A signature is in the bottom right corner.
