Two blacksmiths: The image depicts two men standing in a rustic workshop-like setting, featuring tools, buckets, and a brick chimney. The man on the left stands casually with one hand in his pocket, wearing a rounded hat and dungarees, while the man on the right, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, suspenders, and a rolled-up shirt, stands more squarely. They are framed by an ornate, golden, embossed border. The case is missing its cover.
