The painting shows a group of people in a workshop. There are five people in total, all wearing brown aprons. The person on the left is sitting on a stool, holding a hammer in their right hand. The person in the middle is standing, holding a basket in their left hand. The three people on the right are sitting on stools, looking at something on the floor. The workshop is dimly lit, with a small window in the background. There are various tools and objects scattered around the room, including a large piece of metal on the floor.
