The scene is set in a dimly lit room with a large window on the left side, allowing natural light to enter. The men are dressed in formal attire, and the table is covered with a red cloth, suggesting a sense of formality and elegance. In the foreground, a dog stands beside one of the men, adding a sense of warmth and companionship to the scene.

The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.
