DescriptionA man with eyeglasses wearing an overcoat reads from a sheet of paper. Other men and women stand looking on, some with bowed heads as if in prayer. One woman wears a hat with a veil. Some women use umbrellas as parasols. Bentwood chairs are on the right. A flag, apparently an American flag, is draped on the stone railing of the bridge at the left.
