Detailed Description
A large group of people, including adults and children, are depicted in an elaborately decorated interior room. The walls are covered in dark green patterned wallpaper, framed by light brown paneling. Above a central fireplace, a white bust of a person is mounted, flanked by two small, ornate gold-framed mirrors. On the left side, a woman in a dark blue dress and white cap sits at a small, dark wooden table, holding a teacup. To her right, a man in a dark coat stands. Three young girls in light-colored dresses are positioned in front of these adults. The girl on the far left, in a light green dress, sits at the table. The middle girl, in a white dress, stands holding a small object. The girl on the far right, also in a white dress, stands holding a string of flowers. In the center-right, a man with a white wig and dark coat stands, looking towards the viewer. To his right, a woman in a bright blue and gold dress sits at a green-topped card table, holding cards. Across from her, another woman in a pink dress also holds cards. Two men are seated at this card table: one with a white wig and brown coat, and another with a dark wig and dark coat. A man in a reddish-brown coat stands behind the card players. The floor is covered by a large rug with a dark border and a pattern of red, blue, and gold geometric shapes. The figures wear elaborate, formal clothing, and many adults have white wigs. The room is softly lit, revealing details of the clothing and decor.
