Description

Four male, unidentified figures sit in a room with wooden board walls, smoking cigarettes. All are wearing long overcoats. The two foreground figures sit facing toward the viewer, although their gaze is downcast. Another figure stands directly behind them and in the background the fourth figure sits with his chin on his hand on his knee, a cigarette hanging from his left hand. All figures look glum and withdrawn.
