The image shows a group of six people. The central figure is a woman with short, wavy hair and a knee-length dress, gesturing with her hands and looking downward. To her left is a nun with glasses, and behind the central woman is a man wearing a hat and glasses. A kneeling man with a cap is reaching out towards the central woman, and to the lower right, a small figure is sitting with a newspaper. The background is a rough, brick-textured wall.
