The painting depicts a family gathered around a rectangular table with a white tablecloth. The table has several black plates and a large platter of roasted meat. Seven people and a dog are in the scene. A man sits on the left, wearing a black outfit, white collar, and black hat, holding a glass of red liquid. A man in a similar outfit stands beside him, wearing a hat and holding a glass. A woman sits across from them, wearing a black and white outfit, and holding a piece of meat. To her right stands a woman in a red and white outfit, holding a tray with meat. A young boy in a brown outfit stands beside her. Two girls stand on the other side of the table; one wears a blue dress and a white shawl, and the other wears a brown and yellow outfit. A white and brown dog sits on the floor beside the seated man. The background is dark and shadowy. The overall mood appears subdued.
