A black and white photograph depicting two figures with solemn expressions, wearing dark coats and scarves. The figure on the left has a mask-like face with distinct, simple features, while the figure on the right is slightly blurred and appears to be looking off to the side. The background is dark and indistinct, focusing the viewer's attention on the subjects.
