A sepia-toned photograph of a smiling woman with short hair, wearing round sunglasses and a dress with a cardigan, seated at a desk in front of a window. She is holding a document and sitting next to a typewriter, suggesting an office setting from a past era. The window behind her offers a view of a building across the street.
