Dignitaries at a stone block, apparently a cornerstone ceremony

A dense group of men in dark suits and hats, some with women among them, stand laughing beside a squared stone block with an iron lifting ring set in its top; mortar lies spread on the floor before it, a flag hangs at the right, and a camera stands on a tripod. The scene resembles the laying of a cornerstone.
