DescriptionThe image consists of a large gathering of human figures (mostly male) all wearing what resembles mid-19th century dress. They are all gathered in a room with windows, and a long desk. A few male figures are behind the desk. A small juvenile figure is seen in the middle of the room. To the right, a male and female figure face each other in conversation.
