Two men who are blind walk behind a boy and are gathered outside of a door (just out of the picture). They appear to be traveling musicians playing for money. Both men have dogs on leashes and carry walking sticks. One man has a flute-like instrument and the other has his mouth open and is probably singing. The boy holds out an upturned hat seeking alms.
