A black and white photograph depicting a vintage television set on top of a dark wooden dresser with a mirror. The TV screen displays the blurred image of a woman's face, and there is a single lit candle and a small box on the dresser. The mirror reflects the TV and the candle, creating a symmetrical effect with light rays emanating from the candle's reflection.
