Three young men sit and stand around a table in a room that is lit by a single candle. The bespectacled man on the left leans casually with the back of his chair against a dresser; the man at the centre sits with the back to the viewer, and the man on the right is standing up. They all have their glasses raised. A fourth man is looking through a window of a door at the back of the room. A pestle and mortar and a bottle stand on the table together with the candlestick. A skull lies on the mantlepiece of the fireplace behind the table. Phiz\'s signature is in the lower right corner.
