A woman sits on a chair with two children; she reads a book held in her left hand to the child on the left. The woman's head is tilted slightly to her right. The child on the left sits on her lap and looks down at the book, their right hand on top of the pages. The child on the right sits beside them on a low chair or stool, their head resting on the woman's right shoulder. The woman wears a low-necked dress with a white apron. The background is dark and shadowy. The image is in black and white and appears to be a print.
