An abstracted rendering of a group of figures in a room with a window behind them

Rendered in loosely connected daubs of dark gray ink, and fine black lines, a group of five dark skinned figures are gathered in a living room. At upper center-left, a man in a pinstriped suit and striped tie faces toward us while looking to the right. His arm is around the shoulder of a woman in a dress seated in an armchair at center right. She holds a small child in her lap, and two larger children stand in front of the couple. Some details like faces or eyes are left incompletely rendered, and thin blocks of orange and small incidental lines and marks in black dot the scene.
