This painting shows two nude figures standing close together. The background is dark and blurry, while the figures have rough, textured skin with pale blues and whites. One figure holds a dark object, and both have a slightly stiff, unnatural pose. The painting looks like it was done with thick, visible brushstrokes, giving it a rough, almost sculpted feel. The lighting is uneven, making some areas glow while others stay shadowed. Next, look up impasto to see how this technique works.
