The guests, mostly male, are dressed in formal wear, and the tables are arranged in a block-U shape around the ornate columns of the room. Candelabras and banners hang from the ceiling, and there are shields on the walls and columns around the room each with years ranging from the 1920s to 1940s. A stage with a railing can be seen in the foreground, with an American flag hanging from the railing in the bottom right corner of the image.
