A vertically oriented black ink print depicts three men in an interior filled with swirling smoke and dense hatching. In the lower right, a man sits with his back to us at a small table. To our left, a second, bearded man stands, raising a hand to his mouth. A third face peers from the right. Brown staining textures the two-part composition, where figures blend into the dark, chaotic lines of the background.
