The painting shows two men, Entellus and Dares, in a scene. They're dressed in old-fashioned clothes and look like they're from ancient stories. You can see the details of their clothes and faces because of the careful lines. The artist used a lot of lines to create shading and texture, which makes the image interesting. To learn more about how this was achieved, look up the technique: engraving.
