Three male figures gathered around a table in the lower right corner. The man on the left, identified as Jackson Pollock, is playing a mouth harp, the man in the middle is playing a fiddle, and the man on the right is holding a harmonica in his hand. There is a curving dirt path behind these figures. On the path, in the middle of the painting, is a man and woman. The man is holding a bloody knife in his right hand. The woman is clutching her chest. There is a house in the left background. There is a cow, haystack, and fence in the right background.
