The image depicts a café scene with various figures present. Two women are seen sitting at a table in the foreground. One woman on the left has her hair pinned up and wears a light dress. In the center, another woman's face is turned slightly downward, possibly with closed eyes, and she wears a hat. The woman on the right, portrayed in profile, has her hair tied up, potentially with a ribbon, and wears a dress with a high collar. Both women have long-sleeved dresses on. Glasses are in front of them, which may contain drinks. In the background, other patrons are visible at different tables, with minimal facial features. The scene resembles a café or bistro interior, with simple line work depicting the furniture and setting, evoking the ambiance of early 20th-century social gatherings.
