The pediment has a carved design along its base. There are two doors on the top half with decorative handles and wavy edges. The bottom half has two doors with similar handles. The clothes press stands on short feet and is positioned on a wooden floor. Behind the clothes press are orange curtains on either side, and a wallpapered wall is visible behind the curtains. The wallpaper features a design with buildings and plants. The image has a black border around it.
