This is a drawing of three figures and a large vase. An elderly man is kneeling and mixing something in the vase while an older figure on the right observes. The figure in the center is holding a lid and an object, while the man on the far left is also kneeling. The indoor setting has minimal furnishings, a hat on the wall, and the figures are dressed in tattered clothing. The style includes exaggerated expressions and postures.
