The image is a black and white photograph of a woman standing on a balcony overlooking the ocean. She is wearing a long coat, trousers, and shoes, and is holding a book in her hand. The balcony has a railing and there are two street lamps on either side of her. The ocean can be seen in the background, with the waves crashing onto the shore. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the image is peaceful and serene.
