A young individual is seated in a wooden armchair, reading a large open book. The person is dressed in formal clothing, including a jacket, knee-length shorts, long stockings, and shoes with straps. The setting appears to be an indoor study or library, with a bookcase in the background, a potted plant on top of it, and a standing lamp nearby.
