A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph depicts two people in profile. On our left, an older man with white hair wears a dark robe and glasses clipped to his nose. He leans forward, hands resting on paper. Facing him on our right, a woman with a light skin tone wears a dark cloche hat with a striped band. She gazes at the man, mouth slightly open, as dramatic light illuminates their faces.
