This black-and-white photograph displays a woman's face and part of her upper body, with her torso facing us and her head slightly turned down and to the left. She has fair skin with freckles, and her short hair is styled in soft waves, tucked behind her ear. She is wearing a light-colored shirt or blouse, and the collar is visible. This woman is positioned near us, by the lower-right corner of the photograph. In the background, three women are standing and looking towards this woman, their bodies facing the right. They have pale skin and are wearing dark long-sleeved dresses and holding handbags. Their hair is covered by dark scarves or head coverings. The scene is set on an outdoor path or street with a wall or hedge on the left. The background is slightly blurred.
