The scene depicts a dining table in a restaurant or pizzeria located in Berlin, Germany, illuminated predominantly by a strong blue ambient light. A white tablecloth covers the table. Two white dinner plates are visible: one holds a single slice of pizza and a half-full wine glass containing a light-colored liquid, while the other contains discarded pizza crusts and a used fork and knife placed on a crumpled white napkin. Two textured clear tumblers, both containing water, are also on the table, along with an additional empty wine glass. A small, dark ashtray is filled with numerous cigarette butts. Two cigarette packs are present: one features German health warnings ("Rauchen fügt Ihnen und den Menschen in Ihrer Umgebung erheblichen Schaden zu."), and the other displays French health warnings ("Fumer nuit gravement à votre santé et à celle de votre entourage"). Partially visible dark-clothed figures at the left and right edges of the frame indicate the presence of at least two individuals seated at the table.
