A vertically oriented lithograph in black ink depicts two men from the waist up. On our left, a man with messy hair and a receding hairline leans forward with an open mouth and hands clasped. Facing him, a man on our right stands upright in profile wearing a long coat. The figures are rendered in sketchy, textured strokes. French text frames the illustration at the top and bottom.
