A black and white photograph of a torn and layered poster on a wall, with the visible text "WOMEN IN ART" and partial information about an event, including dates and a phone number. The image includes handwritten text at the bottom left that reads "New York 1979" and a signature at the bottom right. The poster is weathered and peeling, creating a textured, abstract appearance.
