The painting features a collection of masks, a vase, and other objects arranged on a table. The masks are depicted in various colors and expressions, while the vase is blue and white. A statue of a woman stands to the right of the vase. In the foreground, a small, white mask with a handle is placed on the table, accompanied by a deck of cards and a spoon. The background of the painting is a muted green color. This still life is reminiscent of the work of the artist James Ensor.
