Description

Black and white interior view of a room filled with collections with an old man in ragged clothing in the center. There are round plaques hanging on the walls, taking up seventy-five percent of the space on the walls. The plaques appear to be of a Roman and Greek theme. In the upper part of the frame there is classical style dentil molding. In the right half of the frame there is a fire place and an unidentified man sitting in a chair and leaning against the outside of the fireplace. He holds a cane and his eyes are closed. He had a long ragged beard. Behind the unidentified man there is an open door with plaques hanging on it as well. Above the door there are two landscape paintings. Written on back in pencil, "Mr. ... Eddy..."
