The image shows two people seated at a table in a dining room. One person is on the left, seen in profile from the waist up, with arms on the table. They have long hair, glasses, and a checkered shirt. The person on the right is also seated, facing slightly towards the camera, with curly hair and wearing a plaid dress. On the table are glasses and a pitcher. The dining room has a patterned tablecloth and a framed picture of fruit on the wall. A window with sheer curtains brightens the room from the left, and a doorway leads to a kitchen area with two windows. A section of floral wallpaper is visible on the right side.
