A small section of the Jewish Synagogue is depicted, with two rows of choirboys singing vigorously. In front of them, in a pew for one person, stands the most conspicuous figure, three-quarter length in profile to the right, as if leading the choir. He wears a fashionable whisker and shirt-frill, with broad-brimmed tricorne hat. On his left, in a higher pew, are seated three elderly Jews, all with beards, also singing. A candelabrum with two lighted candles hangs over their heads. In a gallery above the choir is a row of women, without hats. All the men wear hats, the choir wear clerical bands; all have exaggerated profiles, and many have prominent lips.
