Summary

He is wearing a fine check pair of trousers, a fine check single breasted jacket with matching waistcoat and kneckerchief. Under the waistcoat is a low collared shirt. In his right hand he holds a walking stick. The man's appearance is very neat with short hair and full beard. The man's left hand rests on the edge of a low table. There is a plain studio backdrop with a drape just in shot in the top left corner. Written on the back in pencil is F.Compton (Senior).
