Gwen John

National Gallery of Art

The image shows three people sitting in chairs, seen from behind. The individual in the front is wearing a dark-colored coat and a large hat with a veil. The person to the left has a tan hat and coat. In the background, two more figures are wearing bonnets, one in orange and the other in white. They are seated in wooden chairs indoors, possibly in a café or meeting hall. The background is a mix of soft brown and cream colors.
