Original artwork description:

We see two figures placed together in complete contrast to one another. The girl appears right in the foreground in full light, wearing a white dress and looking directly at us. The man faces away, our view of him is obscured by his chair and his silhouette is barely distinguishable from the darkness of the background that envelopes him. This contract is juxtaposed against their close pictorial proximity, further emphasising the distance between them.
The dynamic between the two is unclear. We are unsure on who is the antagonist of this tale.
The light emitting from the television screen offers the greatest visual contrast in the image. What relevance does that hold for interpreting this scene?
