Adrien Herbert's The Big Tent depicts a scene rendered in a loose, impressionistic style with washes of color that give a sense of activity and movement. The tent structure has a peak and is supported by wires or cables, implying it is quite expansive. Figures in various shades of dark colors are shown in front of the tent, some in conversation, others walking or standing, suggesting a gathering or event is taking place. There are also hints of trees in the background, which adds to the outdoor setting.
