The stout alderman, spoon and fork in hand, wears a napkin pinned around his neck; he has a full spoon at his mouth and a plate of food and a mostly empty glass decanter rest upon the table in front of him. On the right the chamberlain, dressed in fur-lined robes and wearing his glasses raised up to his bald forehead, is shown with one arm raised and subtley pointing upwards while the left arm rests upon a large document entitled: This indenture wit. A coat of arms is displayed at the top of the design</dc:description><dc:description>Title in artist's hand at top of design; artist signature and date inscribed in pen and black ink below image.
