This is a painting of an interior scene with a light blue armchair and a side table with a lamp. The painting uses bold colors and thick black outlines. The armchair has distinctive black and white striped details and sits on a green floor. A yellow side table holds a green lamp with a red lampshade. The background is patterned with diagonal black and white stripes and a segment shows a framed picture in yellow with green. A red curtain partially covers the black wall on the left. Red dotted patterns are visible on the right side.
