There is a group of five people in a dining setting. The focus is on four seated individuals at a small table with a tablecloth. They are shown from the waist up. One man looks disgruntled and sits with his arms crossed, facing away from the table. Another man is seated across from him, raising his clenched fist. A woman is sitting with her hands folded in her lap. The individuals have exaggerated facial features, long noses, and distinct profiles. They wear simple clothing, with one person wearing an apron. A pitcher and cup are on the table. A waiter is standing to the left, holding a piece of paper. A hat and coat hang on hooks. The room is illuminated from above, casting shadows on the walls.
