This is a gelatin silver print of a male and female figure. The two figures appear standing next to each other in profile at right. The man wears a cloth turban and carries an urn on his shoulder. The woman wears long robes and extends her arm across the composition holding a long branch of flowers. The robe draped over the woman's arm obscures the view of the figure's bodies, leaving only their heads visible in the image.
