The first person has a prominent nose and wears a patterned shawl, the second person has delicate features with rosy cheeks and gray hair styled backward, while the third person has a long, slender nose and thick eyebrows, with voluminous, curly hair and a beard. They wear cloaks. The background features a cloudy, moonlit sky with a large moon visible in the distance. The scene is set at night.
