This print shows thirteen men sitting at a long table covered with a tablecloth, depicted by thin, dark lines. The men are shown from the knees up, seated on one side of the table across from us. A central man with long hair and a beard is surrounded by others engaged in conversation or gestures. The men wear draped robes and exhibit various styles of facial hair. All but one have halos around their heads, and rays of light shine upwards from the head of the central man. Objects on the table include plates, cups, and bread. The background features paneled walls, windows, and a ceiling with visible beams. The background of the print is off-white paper.
