Description
Two people sit at a table in a wood-clad room. They both wear large, feathered hats and colorful robes lined with brown fur. One of the figures is writing in a ledger with a quill, while the other makes a face at the viewer. Papers are falling off a ledge behind the figures, where a candle sits. On the table in front of the figures, there is a pile of silver and gold coins.
