The image shows two women depicted from the waist up. The woman in the foreground is seated, with one hand resting on a ledge and the other hand touching her shoulder. She has curly hair and is wearing an elaborate hat adorned with feathers and fabric, with some lace or ruffles around her neck and wrists. Her clothing is detailed with stripes, and it appears to be a dress with a sash tied around her waist. Behind her, another woman peeks from behind a curtain, revealing only her face and part of her upper body. Her hair is also styled with a decorative headpiece adorned with feathers and flowers. The background features a partially open window with visible grid lines and a potted plant or bush on the ledge beside the seated woman.
