A frame from the film. The scene is set indoors, possibly a stage or a decorated room.

The primary subject is a man dressed in a formal suit, complete with a white bow tie and a small flower or emblem on his lapel. He has a mustache and a neatly trimmed beard. He is holding up a large object, which appears to be a striped or patterned fabric, possibly a cloak or a large sheet. The fabric is draped over something, giving it a conical shape.

The backdrop consists of a wall with decorative panels. These panels are ornately framed and feature painted scenes, possibly landscapes or decorative motifs. There is also a window or doorway with a detailed frame visible behind the man and the fabric, which hints at an outdoor scene. To the left of the man is a dark, possibly upholstered piece of furniture, perhaps a chair or a bench.
