This woodcut shows a simple room with high ceilings and big windows. Inside, two people stand near a table with papers and a lamp. The walls are bare, and the floor has a few scattered chairs. Outside, you can see trees and a person walking by. The artist used sharp lines and dark shading to create depth. The red background makes the scene stand out.
