An individual wearing a plaid coat with fur trim stands on the steps of a neoclassical building, holding a stick with a notched end, possibly part of a protest sign. A child in a hooded coat is nearby, slightly behind. The background features tall columns, large wooden doors, and paned windows with decorative grilles. The setting appears formal, possibly a government or civic building.
