The figures are rendered in soft charcoal tones and appear in various seated and standing poses along the edges of the central cloth, with some leaning forward and others turned toward it. On the left, darker silhouettes of two standing figures face the scene, one wearing a rounded cap. Toward the center and right, a mix of seated and standing figures display varied headwear and draped garments, with a few faces shown in profile and others more frontal. The cloth on the central form has visible folds and a hand rests upon it near its edge. The background above the group is a deep, dark field that contrasts with lighter shaded figures and the framed border surrounding the composition. The outer border consists of multiple narrow bands creating a thick rectangular frame around the interior image.
