This painting shows a light gray folding chair in the center of a room with pale green walls. On the left is a large window with yellow-orange curtains looking out on a pink building and a taller orange building, with a patch of pale gray sky above the pink building. Below the window is a brown ledge with some small pink objects on it. To the right is another window with similar curtains, put the panes are white. There is a brown sill below this window with a small blue object on it, perhaps a book. The floor is a slightly darker green than the walls. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible.
