Snapshot of Frances Partridge to the left of the group, looking to the right. Next to her sits Alec Penrose, who rests his right hand on the table and looks towards the camera. Lytton Strachey sits in a low chair, so only his head is visible above the table. He looks towards the camera. Frances Penrose sits next to Lytton and looks downwards. Ralph Partridge sits nearest the camera to the right, also looking downwards. The table is covered in a checked cloth and is laid with a teapot and teacups.
