The King Robert, red-faced and angry, yelling at Lord Eddard while other members of the small council watch: Varys, Littlefinger, Lord Renly, and Grand Maester Pycelle.
In the novel, Ser Barristan Selmy, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, should also be on the table, but does not seem to be present here unless he’s off-camera in this shot.
In the background, there’s a tapestry featuring what looks like a battle scene, which is very much in keeping with the sort of decor Robert is said to have preferred.
