The image displays a sketch on paper or sketchbook that shows two studies of a human fist gripping a vertical bar. Both studies appear to be of the same subject from different angles; one fist is seen from the side while the other shows more of the thumb side and back of the hand. The drawings are quite detailed, with the artist capturing the subtleties of light and shadow to provide a three-dimensional effect. The outlines and some internal lines suggesting the structure of the hand and fingers are more defined on the second fist. There are vertical lines extending from the fists, indicating the continuation of the bars they are holding. The paper's edges are worn, and it appears somewhat aged. There's a red folio number "77" in the lower right corner and a small notation at the top left, possibly a reference number or mark from the artist, which is not clearly legible. The artwork is rendered mainly in charcoal or a similar medium, given the soft texture and the contrast against the off-white paper.

The image depicts a sketchbook page featuring two sketches of hands, likely drawn by Vincent van Gogh. The left sketch shows a hand holding a pencil, while the right sketch shows a hand holding a paintbrush. Both sketches are drawn in charcoal and appear to be studies for a larger work. * The left sketch shows a hand holding a pencil, with the fingers curled around the pencil and the thumb on top. The hand is positioned at an angle, with the wrist turned slightly to the right. + The pencil is held between the index and middle fingers, with the tip of the pencil pointing downwards. + The charcoal lines are bold and expressive, with visible texture and shading. * The right sketch shows a hand holding a paintbrush, with the fingers wrapped around the brush and the thumb on top. The hand is also positioned at an angle, with the wrist turned slightly to the right. + The paintbrush is held between the index and middle fingers, with the bristles pointing downwards. + The charcoal lines are similar to those in the left sketch, with bold and expressive strokes. Overall, the sketches appear to be studies for a larger work, possibly a portrait or still life. The use of charcoal and the bold, expressive lines suggest that Van Gogh was experimenting with different techniques and styles.
