A group portrait of men and boys with the Amir seated at the middle. The Amir has a sheathed sword resting across his legs and has his arm around a boy standing beside him. The boy is wearing an embroidered coat and tassled hat. Two boys holding swords are sitting on the ground along with three older men. The rest of the men are standing in a row behind the Amir.
