The scene depicts two individuals in elaborate 18th-century style Venetian Carnival costumes posing in Piazza San Marco, Venice, Italy, directly in front of the Biblioteca Marciana. The male subject, positioned on the left, wears a white and gold rococo-style suit consisting of a brocaded jacket with gold trim, ruffled cuffs, knee breeches, white stockings, and ornate white shoes with gold bows. He has a white curly wig and a white feathered tricorn hat with gold embroidery. A gold and white striped walking stick is held in his right hand. The female subject, on the right, wears a voluminous white and gold gown with a wide skirt featuring intricate gold lace, sequins, and white roses. A brown fur stole with a tail is draped over her left shoulder. Her dark, curly hair is topped with a white feathered tricorn hat adorned with gold trim, pearls, and white roses. Both subjects are smiling towards the camera. The background features the ornate, light-colored stone façade of the Biblioteca Marciana (National Marcian Library), characterized by arched windows with dark grilles, classical columns, balustrades, and detailed sculptural reliefs. Several casually dressed individuals populate the middle and far background, some walking, others sitting on steps. The ground is a grey paved piazza scattered with numerous multi-colored confetti pieces. The scene is illuminated by bright daylight, casting distinct shadows.
