Description
A crowd poses for a group photo outside a Tobacco store that specializes in cigars. Many of the people are wearing aprons. There is snow on the ground, and they are warmly dressed. The trees are bare. The tobacco store sits behind the crowd, and has a large porch entryway. The back of the building appears to be someone's house.
A large group of people is gathered in front of a two-story brick building with a gabled roof and decorative trim over the storefront. The scene is set in winter, with snow covering the ground, and leafless trees are visible on the right side of the image.
