The painting depicts a still life on a black marble table. Two stacked books are positioned on the left side, with the top book being brown and the bottom book having a red label. A white feather quill pen lies across the top book. A brown inkwell sits on a third book behind the stacked books. A blue piece of paper with an image of a coin and a real coin are placed in front of the books. On the right side, a small metal tin with a silver lid sits on a folded cloth next to a cylindrical pink object with chipped silver paint. The background is a plain brown wall.
