A pencil drawing on beige-colored paper depicts a circus scene. The drawing shows an elephant standing on a short, wide pedestal, facing right. The elephant has a decorative cloth on its back. To the right of the elephant, a clown walks to the left. The clown wears a hat, a shirt with spots, a large diaper-like garment, and striped stockings. The clown holds their right arm out in front of them. In the background, two people stand behind the clown. The words "Dîner des Tarnais" are written in black text at the top right. A long, curved line trails from the clown's left hand down to a ball with a "t" in it.
