Seven women and one man ranging in age from 20 years old to what appears to be about 70 years old can be seen working in a kitchen. Most are placing food on small plates, while pots and pans hang overhead. The man at right is balding and works near a large pot. The women wear light-colored dresses and aprons, while the man wears an apron over a striped shirt.
