A group of nine standing figures and two seated

A sketch of a large group of figures in conversation. The figures are standing in various postures and are rendered in simple outline. All male figures are wearing broad-rimmed hats. There is one female figure in the background looking up.

The unsigned drawing compares in subject matter, yet not in style to figure studies attributed to Willem van de Velde, the Elder, which are dated to the 1650s.
