In the middle is an older man in the armchair wearing a suit and a hat. In his hands lowered on his knees, he holds a few threads that are unwinding on various sides. These threads are rolled down in a multitude of balls. Each ball is bearing a different name (arms, ideology, war and peace, clergy, mankind, fashion, politics, money, currency ...). Down, to the right is the half-length figure of a bald man holding threads in both hands. Above are the contours of the skyscraper and two hands holding the long threads.
