Four women stand closely together in a row. The two women on the left are reading books. The third woman from the left wears a patterned dress and headscarf with intricate circular designs, focusing on her reading. The woman on the far right leans in towards the third woman, also reading. The women have short to medium-length hair styled differently. In the background, there is a bulletin board with posters and notices, and a partially visible open window reflecting light inside.
