The picture shows a modern exhibition in a museum with the theme of human rights and social awakening. A red wall serves as a backdrop for several information boards, historical photographs and posters that refer to protest movements and social struggles, including a poster with the inscription "Solidarity with Hindelbank" and another that refers to the right to vote for women. On the left of the picture, a person is sitting at a reading area with a bookshelf stocked with various publications. Two other people are looking at the exhibition boards with interest. The scene conveys a thoughtful and reflective atmosphere in which visitors engage with historical and social issues.
