Composition in black, white and red tones. Fast contour lines and dashed. Support containing two studies: in the upper half, woman crying and in the lower half open on the left hand.

Sees on the left arm, squalid, folded with open hand through the hair also covering his face. In the lower half, the hand is open, across almost the entire width of the support; the thumb is up and the other four fingers are almost horizontally stretched, looking up at the bottom on the right wrist support.
