A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts two men with light skin tones on stone stairs. In the center, a stocky man stands facing us, arms behind his back, wearing a light shirt and dark tie. To our lower left, another man in a suit is pictured in profile. Behind them, a white door with a glass arch marked 1651 is framed by columns and dark shutters. Metal railings flank the stairs.
