Knee-up shot of two young people standing close together between tall dark wood library shelves. A young woman with a shoulder-length auburn bob holds an open hardcover book at chest height with her left hand, fingers spread across the pages; her right hand grips the lapel of the young man's navy blazer, pulling him closer. He stands facing her, his left hand braced against the bookshelf beside her head, right hand resting on her waist over the fabric of her dark green sweater. Their faces are inches apart, noses almost touching. They look directly into each other's eyes. She wears a dark green ribbed sweater tucked into a plaid skirt; he wears a navy blazer over a cream cable-knit vest and white Oxford shirt, a gold watch on his left wrist. Warm golden light from a green-shaded desk lamp on a table behind the young woman illuminates their faces from the left; deep shadow fills the shelves around them. Old leather-bound books line the shelves. The mood is hushed and tense.
