The illustration is divided into three panels. The one on the left shows a woman working on her laptop in a room with a red curtain and from the window we see a brightly lit sky. Next to her is a lamp and some documents in Braille. In the centre panel, there is a woman in a yellow dress with a plate full of food in her hands. She is surrounded by people, tinted in blue who are engrossed in each other, some looking at her but not talking to her. In the panel on the right, a woman wearing a red dress is seated in a meeting room with blue walls as another woman who is standing at the door, looks on her and frowns.
