Analysis
The painting shows people sitting one behind another, in a queue, in a room resembling a waiting room. On the wall of the room there appears an arrow pointing to the right and a plate. Among the depicted persons is a young woman with a baby on her lap, and an older man and older woman. In the frame are also fragments of other characters. Within the image beats apathy, indifference, toil of daily existence, waiting for death, and apathy.{{Cite web|url=http://culture.pl/en/artist/andrzej-wroblewski|title=Andrzej Wróblewski {{!}} Twórca {{!}} Culture.pl|website=Culture.pl|access-date=2016-05-20}}
