The "Readers" painting by Louis Welden Hawkins depicts two young women. The woman on the left wears a red dress and a blue hat with a white inner lining and a white brim edging. Her right elbow rests on an open book, her hand supporting her chin. The woman on the right wears a blue and white dress and a white hat with a blue and brown patterned inner lining. Her head is tilted down and to the right. The two women sit amidst green grass and red and yellow foliage. The woman on the left smiles with her eyes cast downward to the right. The woman on the right smiles slightly with her eyes cast down.
