The image depicts a woman seated on a metal chair outdoors, against a graffiti-marked wall. She wears a dark, short-sleeved dress and sits with her torso facing the camera while her legs are angled to her left. Her hands rest on her lap. The woman has a round face with full cheeks and looks slightly to her right. Her hair is styled in a voluminous manner with curls framing her face. A large dog stands next to her, its head resting on her lap. They are situated on a flat, sunlit surface casting shadows, with a shadow of an object on the left side of the image in front of the marked wall.
