content: A sepia tone cabinet card of a standing man posing with two chairs. The photograph is in portrait orientation. The unidentified man is depicted in full length. He is standing and facing the viewer with a serious expression on his face. He is holding the back of a wicker corner chair with his proper right hand and his proper left fist is resting akimbo on his hip. He is wearing a dark, buttoned up suit, a white dress shirt with rounded points, and a medium tone tie. The mustached man also has small, round, wired rim glasses on his face, and a white pocket square tucked into his proper left breast pocket. On the right is a tall, white chair with its back carved into a fleur-de-lis shape. The man is standing in front of a photographic backdrop. The backdrop is painted with a bucolic landscape that includes a church, a scenic river with a stone bridge, and a house. The rectangular photograph is adhered to a rectangular shaped cardboard mount. The primarily dark mount features a light tone band around the photograph as well as two additional embossed bands. There are small losses at the top left and right corners and a large loss in the bottom right corner. There are also small loses along the left and right edges. Printed gold script at the bottom center reads [[---?]ebbel Baltimore] with a flourish underneath each word. Between the two words is a gold stamp design of a painter’s palette with three brushes and the text [EXTRA / FINISH]. The back of the mount is gray and plain. Handwritten along the top left edge in pencil is the text [11748].
