A vertically oriented lithograph in black ink on cream paper depicts two people in an interior. On our left, a bearded man with light skin tone stands smoking a pipe and holding a skull. He looks toward a woman seated on our right, who has light skin tone and gazes down at a bonnet in her lap. Shelves and walls behind them hold books, anatomical charts, and more human skulls.
