This painting shows two figures, one male and one female, standing together. They are both nude, and their bodies are depicted in a loose, expressive style. The figures are drawn in wax crayon, with bold lines and vibrant colors. The male figure has his arm around the female figure, and they appear to be embracing. The background of the painting is a warm, golden color, which contrasts with the cool tones of the figures' skin. The overall effect is one of intimacy and closeness.
