Image 31 shows a woman touching the outside corner of her left eye with her right middle finger. She is holding a small mirror with an attached stand in her left hand. Her hair is worn up, and she is wearing a headband and appears to be wearing a bib. She is shown from the waist up, and she is seated. Her body is oriented toward the camera, and she is looking downward toward the mirror. This image is oriented horizontally.

All of the women have long, straight hair and are wearing headbands and bibs. A woman with very curly hair is partially visible in the lower-left corner of the image. She is seated on the opposite side of the table from the other women, and her face is turned away from the camera. This image is oriented horizontally.
