Object description
On a blue background are waist-length images of a man and a woman. On the right side, a young woman is depicted in a three-quarter view facing to the left, with her gaze directed at the viewer. She is wearing a green cape on her head. Her hair is powdered and styled elaborately, with curls cascading down onto her shoulders. She is dressed in a deep blue, deeply plunging dress with long sleeves, a white lace collar, and a blue bow on her chest. With her right hand, the woman holds onto the right hand of a young man who is depicted on the left side of her, also in a three-quarter view facing to the left, with his gaze directed at the viewer. The man is wearing a white wig, and his face is clean-shaven. He is dressed in a red waistcoat with a wide lapel and white lace cuffs. His neck is adorned with a white tie, and he wears a jabot on his chest.
