A black and white street photograph capturing a contrast of styles and generations. On the left, a woman in a light coat and patterned scarf holds a shopping bag, looking off to the side. In the background, two individuals wait, one partially obscured by a pole. On the right, two younger women lean against a building by a heavy door, one in a plaid skirt and white top, the other in a dark sweater and white skirt, both looking directly at the camera with expressions of curiosity or defiance. The setting suggests an urban environment with a sidewalk and buildings in the background.
