The image is a black and white photograph of a mother and son sitting on a wooden dock. The mother is sitting on the left side of the dock, with her legs crossed and her hands resting on her knees. She is wearing a white dress with polka dots and her hair is tied up in a bun. The son is sitting next to her, with his legs crossed. He is looking down at the ground with a sad expression on his face. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a body of water. The overall mood of the image is somber and contemplative.
