The image shows three people. In the center, a man is seated behind a rectangular surface, with a surprised or singing expression. He wears a tall hat and a layered outfit. To his left is a young girl with an open mouth and wide eyes, wearing a bonnet and a dark dress. To his right, an elderly woman holds a sheet of paper. Behind them, a man is visible through a window with opened shutters, looking angry. The background is a simple wall with the window. The image has a sketched, monochromatic style.
