Description

A man, dressed in a dark suit with a flower in his jacket lapel, is seated at a large desk. Papers litter the desktop. A framed photograph of a woman is on the top of the desk. Other photographs, diplomas and certificates are attached to the wall above the desk. To the left of the desk is a metal file cabinet. On the far wall next to a large window is a barrister's bookcase filled with legal books. The view from the window indicates that this office is on an upper floor and water droplets on the window suggest that it is or has been raining. Behind the man, against the right wall, is a tall file cabinet with a variety of horizontal and vertical drawers. Attached to the side of the file cabinet is a calendar, open to May, 1912 and advertising “Peter Kiene & Son, Insurance Agents.” On the wall on the far right, next to the tall file cabinet is a large, framed photograph of Yale University. The number “35” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. No number is written in the upper left corner.
