caption: The image shows a painting of two women sitting at a table, each holding a book in their hands. The painting is done in a realistic style, with the women's faces and clothing clearly visible. The woman on the left is wearing a white dress with a blue shawl draped over her shoulders, and her hair is pulled back in a bun. She is looking off to the side, her expression thoughtful and contemplative. The other woman is looking away from the viewer, her hands resting on her lap. The background of the painting is a light blue, with a few white clouds scattered across the sky.
