The image features two individuals in an interior setting. A man is seated in a chair facing to his left, with a frontal reflection shown in an oval mirror. He has short, light-colored hair and wears a draped covering. Beside him, a woman leans forward slightly as she examines or works on his hair. She has dark hair styled in a bun and wears a textured dress. The background is softly shaded, focusing attention on the pair and the mirror, which reveals details of the man's face. The setting contains no additional objects.
