The image shows two figures, one standing and one kneeling. The standing figure is on the left, looking down at the kneeling figure on the right. The standing person has a long beard and wears a robe with long sleeves. The kneeling figure has long, wavy hair, and holds a shepherd's crook. Both figures wear simple garments. The setting is outdoors with rocky terrain, a large rock in the foreground, and a small tree or shrub in the middle ground. The sky is lightly sketched.
