Police investigating the racially-charged incident have released this image as they continue their hunt for the suspects.
Officers were called to the park just after 8.00am on August 13 to reports of a dog attack and racially-aggravated assault.
It was reported two women attacked a man and a woman - both in their seventies - after the womens' dog had attacked the couples' two pets.
The 75-year-old woman suffered a dog bite to her hand, which required hospital treatment.
The 79-year-old man suffered cuts and bruising after he was pushed to the ground and assaulted by the two women.
It was also reported that the women had racially abused the victims.
The suspects left the scene before officers arrived.
There have been no arrests.
Police Sergeant John Berry, of the Met's Royal Parks police, said: "The park should be a place where people can walk their dogs in safety.
"The level of aggression and violence used towards an elderly couple was shocking and I would appeal to anyone who recognises these women to contact police."
Any witnesses or anyone with any information about the two female dog walkers is asked to call police on 101, quoting CAD 1840/13Aug.
