This is a drawing of an interior scene with two figures seated at a table within a rustic room. The room is defined by wooden beams on the ceiling and leaded glass windows. The furnishings are simple with a table, bench, and chair. A lit candle sits on the table, casting shadows. Shelves on the back wall hold various items and a piece of art is hung. The atmosphere is quiet and contemplative.
