The painting in the form of a lying rectangle shows a multiform genre scene taking place in a highlander wooden room. The room is illuminated by the light of an oil lamp hanging on the wall, decorated with reeds hanging from the ceiling made of spruce twigs decorated with blue tissue paper flowers. All 16 people in the room are dressed in traditional Podhale costumes. In the central part, in the foreground, a dancing couple. A dancer with her arms under her sides, wearing a white blouse, a red patterned corset tied with a ribbon tied at the waist with a bow and a black skirt with red flowers. A dancer turned sideways to the viewer, with a stick raised in his right hand. A dancer in a hat with shells and feathers, a white shirt, a leather heel, parzenice pants and a juhassian belt. On the legs of the dancers, there are Kierpce In the center of the center, behind a pair of dancers, there is a table where two girls and a boy are busy making Christmas decorations. The girl sitting at the table cuts flowers from blue tissue paper, the other girl decorates a tiny spruce tree standing on the table, and the accompanying boy holds spruce branches ready for decoration. On the right side of the painting, against the background of the door and wall, a four-person band consisting of two violinists, a bassist and a highlander playing a string instrument. Only the bow held in the right hand is visible. On the left side of the painting, a group of seven people: in the foreground two children watching a dancing couple, then laughing - a man and two women sitting on a bench, and a couple in the corner of the room, busy talking. Behind this group, on the left, there is a window, behind which you can see darkness and an oil lamp illuminating the interior of the room.
