A vertically oriented graphite drawing depicts an adult man and a child with medium-dark skin. Positioned at the top right, the man's profile faces left, his head defined by thick hatching. Below, the child curls toward the man's chest with a gaping mouth and wide-open eyes looking right. Overlapping lines create deep shading throughout the figures against a background of scribbled strokes. In the bottom right, CHARLES WHITE is written in block letters.
