Most men have beards or mustaches and show varied facial features and expressions, some looking downward, others glancing aside or forward. One man near the center wears glasses and leans over papers on the table, another beside him peers at a small book held close. A bell sits on the table among scattered sheets and a pen, and the table surface is textured and marked. The background is dark and crosshatched, making the figures stand out in lighter tones, and the overall palette is monochrome with strong contrasts between light and shadow.
