Two men, of whom the one at left is turned 3/4 to the right, has one hand on his hip, and holds with the other a smoking cigar from which spirals of smoke form the word "Tudieu." The other man, seen from the back and turned to the left with his hands in his coat pockets, holds a whip and smokes a cigar from which escapes the word, "Ventrebleu." Buts of cigars from which dying smoke traces the word, "Parbleu" are heaped on the ground.
