Description

This is a black and white photo of a man leaning over and working at a desk in an otherwise empty room. The man is wearing a dark Navy uniform and is seated at a desk in the far left and back of the room. There is a bed with a plaid quilt and metal bed frame in the foreground, and there is a rocking chair with a cushion placed just on the other side of the bed. The windows are decorated with curtains tied to the side and a thin curtain over the blinds which are half open, and there is a small bust of a bulldog hung between the two windows. There is a photo of two people on the desk and a framed floral print hanging above the desk.
