A small portable television with a long antenna is on a kitchen counter, reflecting its image on the shiny surface. Behind it, a metal percolator and other kitchenware rest on a stove. The image is in black and white, with a monochrome palette of grays and whites. The cup and saucer are in the foreground out of focus, the television is in the middle ground slightly to the left, and the kitchen items with a window are on the right side of the scene.
