Detailed Description
A man and a woman are seated side-by-side, facing slightly right, with a detailed landscape visible behind them through what appears to be a window. The man, on the left, has a round face, light skin, and short reddish-brown hair visible under a large, brown fur hat. He wears a dark coat with a wide, light brown fur collar. His hands are clasped in front of him. The woman, on the right, has a pale complexion and wears a white, rounded head covering that completely conceals her hair. Her face is somewhat angular, and she looks straight ahead. She is dressed in a teal-green gown with a wide, dark collar and cuffs, and a white undergarment is visible at her neckline. Her hands are clasped, holding a small, light-colored object. Between the two figures, and extending behind them, is a detailed landscape scene. On the left, behind the man, are blue mountains and a light-colored castle by a body of water. To the right, behind both figures, a winding river flows through a green and brown landscape with scattered trees. A white church with a tall spire stands on a hill, and a small bridge crosses the river. Tiny figures are visible on paths in the landscape.
