DescriptionMen and women pose on a stage, in front of an elaborate painted backdrop depicting a European cityscape with a fountain. Some people appear to be dresses as clowns. One woman wears a veil, one man holds a mask. One man wears a plaid suit. A man in the back row is wearing a dress. Several men have mustaches. A man in the front row, apparently wearing a long skirt, is identified by an inscription as "W.H. Jillson." He and the woman beside him hold a sign that reads: "Waltz." A piano is in the left background.
