A cemetery at night. A slim man, probably the sexton, dressed in a stripy coat and floppy hat, sits on a tomb stone, holding a bottle in his right hand. A pickaxe and a tin lying are in front of him on the grass. He is surrounded by strange, goblin-like figures dressed in large hats, pointy shoes and capes. One of them sits cross-legged on a gravestone right next to the man. Another clings to a tree on the left. Parts of a church are visible in the background. The engraver\'s signature is in the lower left corner.
