DescriptionA banquet is held in a large room. Three tables are arranged in a horseshoe pattern. Tablecloths, dishes, and glassware are on the tables. Men in formalwear are seated at the tables, and waitstaff stand against the walls. A Connecticut state flag and an American flag hang over large, wooden double doors in the background. Potted palms are spaced on the floor along the tables, and two of them are placed in the middle of the empty area between the tables. Garlands also run along the tables.
