Ramon Casas and Pere Romeu on a Tandem

The picture shows a drawing of two people riding a tandem bicycle. Both are wearing white clothing, probably typical of the late 19th or early 20th century, including hats, white shirts and trousers. One is wearing a dark coat and black socks, while the other is wearing striped socks. An urban silhouette is suggested in the background and a bag is attached to a bicycle. The scene looks comical, with both figures exaggeratedly portrayed with characteristic features and facial expressions.
