This is a drawing of a person sitting at a lunch counter reading a newspaper. The scene is rendered in a style that uses bold contrasts and intricate line work. The foreground features a person with an angular form seated on a stool, holding a newspaper close to their face. Steam swirls upwards from a cup or bowl on the counter in front of them. Behind, shelves are visible holding jars or containers. In the background, a sign reads "LUNCH SPECIAL." The patterned counter and stools, along with the checkerboard floor, contribute to the vintage diner feel of the scene.
