Black and white drawing of four men in old-fashioned clothing. The men in the foreground wear men's fashion from the mid-1800s, including top hats and tailcoats. The man on the left has one hand on his hip and the other on the back of the man in front of him. The man in front wears a top hat at an angle and looks down. The man on the right stands with one arm around the man in front and smiles. The man in the back left stands with his back to a table. The background shows a room with a candelabra on the wall, a table and a column. The border around the drawing has text at the top that reads "PARIS LE MATIN." There is small text at the bottom.
