A dark-haired, young woman stands at the centre in the foreground. She is wearing a strapless crinoline gown and is holding a folded fan in her hands. She is surrounded by men wearing tailcoats. Some of them have mutton chops and moustaches. The woman looks at the man to her right with an arrogant expression. More people in the background. A chandelier is visible in the next room through the doorway. Engraver's signature in the lower right corner.
