This is a drawing of a public event or theatrical performance. The drawing showcases a scene with a large, animated crowd facing a distinguished figure standing to the right side under the heading "L'ENNEEMI DU PEUPLE." The crowd appears lively with various expressions, some arms raised, and a few individuals in hats at the foreground. To the right, a list with names and roles accompanies the main figure, with the date "LE 18 FEVRIER 1899" included. The composition uses strong contrasts of light and shadow to convey energy and drama.
