A long wooden bench with a high backrest and armrests is centered against an off-white background. The bench has a natural wood finish with shades of brown and visible wood grain. It extends horizontally across the center of the image and the slightly angled view makes the left side of the bench appear closer and larger. The background is neutral and unobtrusive.
