A seated person reads a small book in a wooden armchair with upholstered cushions and carved gold-tipped feet, set on a white cloth in a wood-panelled hall. The person wears an orange shawl over a salmon-pink garment with a maroon border and a peach knitted cap, and is barefoot. Two tall polished brass oil lamps with bird-shaped finials stand on either side, a pink tulip sits in a vase on a log stool, and a blank projection screen hangs behind. Colourful woven panels frame the sides. The person's appearance does not establish identity, so the description records role only.
