The image is a black and white sketch of a man's face. The man appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties, with a bald head and a serious expression. He is wearing a long coat with a high collar and a necklace with a pendant. His eyes are closed and his mouth is slightly open, as if he is deep in thought.

In the background, there is a woman sitting on a chair, with her head tilted back and her hands resting on her knees. She is looking off to the side with a contemplative expression on her face. On the right side of the image, there are two other figures, one of whom is holding a cane. The background is filled with various objects, including a clock and a vase with flowers. The overall mood of the sketch is somber and contemplative.
