Brackets are below the cornice of the pitched roof on the right. The stuccoed wall appears in disrepair and has cracks and losses throughout revealing the red brick on the bottom. Below, and to the left, is the top of the arched window on the first floor. In the background top right is the top of a tree and the sky. Written in black ink on the back top left corner is: "WORKMAN RESIDENCE/ -S. W.
