The image shows two women outdoors. One woman is standing and the other is crouching. The standing woman is visible from head to toe, positioned slightly to the left as she faces the camera with her hands clasped in front of her. Her facial features are visible, framed by dark hair pulled back. She wears a long, light-colored dress with long sleeves. The crouching woman is seen from the back, wearing a similar dress, and appears to be examining a flower. Both women are in a garden surrounded by foliage, with a flower bed in the foreground. In the background, there is a building with large windows and potted ferns, suggesting they are in a garden next to a house. The image is tinted blue, resembling an old or stylized photograph.
