A horizontally oriented print in black ink depicts several men with light skin tones gathered for an auction. To our upper left, an auctioneer stands on a podium, raising a mallet. In the center, a man holds a large framed painting for a group of onlookers. The men, wearing top hats and caps, lean forward with furrowed brows. Dense, intersecting black lines create deep shadows, highlighting the intense scrutiny and expressions of the crowd.
