Description

Black and white framed photographic full-length portrait of Richard Delafield as a youth.. He sits "Indian-style", hands folded on a floral patterned cushion and leaning on a striped pillow, by a window off to the right. He wears a sailor's outfit. The frame and photo are oval-shaped. It appears to be made of brass; stamped with a leaf and berry motif which is framed on either side by a row of small consecutive bead-shaped markings. The stand also appears to be brass and is A-shaped. The glass is slightly convex.
