This work is an abstract cubist print of objects you might find on a counter including papers, newspapers and bottles portrayed in geometric sections. On the left are parts of a sign reading "vins." Towards the middle another text, reads "Paris". The forms are clustered in the center where there is the heaviest shading. There is a rectangular border drawn around the entire composition and it is labelled with the words "Le Comptoir" in block letters along the bottom edge.
