The image depicts a black and white drawing of a group of grotesque faces. The drawing is on a beige background. There are seven human-like faces with distorted features. They are clustered together. A bird-like creature with large wings and a skull for a head looms over them. The skull has a wide grin. One figure on the right holds a long pointed object. The drawing appears to be signed and dated. The signature reads "James Ensor 1904". There is additional illegible text. The overall mood of the image is dark and ominous. It appears to represent "The Seven Deadly Sins". The artist's style is expressive and distorted.
