The two figures on the left are dancing, while the two musicians seated on a bench to the right of the composition are playing wind instruments. At the center of this rectangular wax figure, resting on the grass, is a large jug with the initials LMM. The figures have no background as they are placed on a wax surface.

The frame is made of ochre-lacquered wood with green internal trim. In good condition. On the back is a typewritten label with the German title No. 132 Tanzgruppe mit Dudelsackpfeifer – Dance Group with Bagpipes. See less
