The drawing depicts an interior scene with church pews and windows. The room contains rows of wooden pews with numbered placards and doors. The walls are textured, and two large windows reveal pine trees outside. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling, casting a faint light. Light and shadow are illustrated, suggesting natural light filtering through the windows in a serene and orderly atmosphere.
