A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a still life on a wooden mantle above a brick hearth. Centered, a tall-headed ceramic bust stands before an intricately patterned plate. To the left, wire-rimmed spectacles rest beside a stylized four-legged creature with a high-arching back. To the right, a textured bird sculpture perches near a metallic bowl. A handwritten date '1952' and a signature appear in the lower margin.
