This black and white photo was taken from behind a lunch counter, with the camera facing three women sitting at the counter. The woman at the right of the image wears a checked dress and pearls around her neck. She looks down at her beverage. The woman at the center of the image wears a striped dress and pearls in her hair. She looks at the camera while she eats her food. The woman at the left wears a dark-colored garment and looks down into her handbag.
