This etching shows two men standing in different poses. The man on the left has his hand on his hip, while the man on the right has his hand on his waist. Both men are wearing hats and long coats. The etching is done in a simple style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The men's faces are not detailed, and their bodies are shown in a somewhat stiff pose. The etching is an example of Baroque art, which was popular in Europe during the 17th century. It is held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
