Three people are seated around a table in a social setting. The woman in the foreground is seated and slightly turned towards the camera. She has dark penciled eyebrows, defined cheekbones, and short-cropped, styled hair. She is wearing a sleeveless top with a patterned scarf wrapped around her neck and is holding a cigarette. The table is cluttered with various objects, including glasses of water, wine glasses, ashtrays, a pack of cigarettes, and papers. Behind her, a man in a suit and tie sits facing forward, with a woman dressed in light-colored clothing seated next to him, her face partially turned away. The background features a black and white abstract mural. The setting is a dimly lit room, suggesting a casual or intimate gathering.
