Original Picture: One man and three women sit around a table in the center of the room while one man stands. Everyone sitting is looking at the standing man who appears to be pantomiming with his hands. They have a board game on the table. Beginning clockwise from left to right around the table, there is a man sitting on the left side of the table in a chair with a green cloth over the back wearing dark-colored socks, jeans, and a dark sweater. His right arm is resting on the table. Next to the man is a woman sitting in a chair with an orange cloth draped on the back, wearing a blue cardigan and her right hand is resting on the table holding a pen. The woman sitting next her on the back side of the table has a large ring on her right hand. Her right hand is resting on the table, while her left hand rests on the empty chair next to her which has an orange cloth draped over the back. She is wearing a pink shirt, a red-tone sock, and has a blue cloth on the back of her chair. She is wearing a watch on her left wrist. The man standing and pantomiming is wearing jeans and a dark sweater. The woman sitting on the right side of the table has bare feet, a blue cloth on her lap and her dress has a blue belt. On the empty chair next to her a blue cloth is draped over the back of the chair and there is a green cloth on the back of the chair the woman is sitting in. Other objects in the room include five small black tables along the walls. The first table along the left wall has a laptop open on it. The table along the left wall closer to the corner has a small beverage bottle and a green cup on it. The table along the back wall closest to the left corner has nothing on it, and the table closer to the right corner of the room has a yellow cup on it. On the radiator under the rightmost window in the back wall there is a pillow striped with pink, red, yellow, and green, and there are three piles of cloths in front of the pillow, in blue, yellow, and green, from left to right. To the right of the pillow is a red cup. The left and center shades are pulled down one-third of the depth of the windows. Along the right wall, toward the back corner of the room, sits the last small black table. Under the table is a black file cabinet with a lamp on it. There is a pile of cords on the floor in front of the file cabinet.
