A young woman with blonde hair wears a grey and white felt hat with blue lettering that says "Легким паром!" (Light steam!). She is holding a bundle of dried leaves, likely for a banya (Russian sauna), in front of her face, obscuring her nose and mouth. Her eyes are visible above the leaves, looking directly at the camera. She is indoors, in a room with wooden paneling on the walls and ceiling. A light fixture is visible on the ceiling. To the left, a small window allows light into the room, and a white container with an orange lid sits on a wooden ledge. The overall environment suggests a traditional Russian banya.
