First one in side view, wearing a large black paletot below the knees, with generous sleeves, presumably well-insulated. Slit pockets. Black pantaloons with 3 BOWS stacked above the hem! Lacy stockings and slippers. The other wears a maroon tailcoat open to reveal a probably white brocade waistcoat. Same black pantaloons. He carries a weird bicorne or a collapsed top hat.
