A black and white photograph of a group of six men sitting around a table in a room. The men are dressed in traditional Chinese clothing. The table is covered with a tablecloth and there are vases of flowers on either side of the table.

In the center of the image there is a man sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and a serious expression on his face. He is wearing a long robe and a hat with a feather on top. To his left there are two men standing behind him one of them is holding a book and the other is looking at the camera. To the right another man is sitting at the table with a cup of tea and a plate of food in front of him. In the background there appears to be a window with curtains and a chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 20th century. The caption on the image reads "Opium Den - Opium fiends busy at work."
