Untitled (man being carried in sedan chair, verso)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned photograph of a man being carried in a sedan chair. The sedan chair is rectangular with a flat roof and a sign on the side with the number 91E. Four men are visible; two are holding long poles attached to the chair and standing on either side of it. The man in the chair wears a suit and a hat. A man in a white uniform and hat stands to the right of the chair, holding a cane. Two other people are in the background; one is a woman carrying baskets on a pole. The scene is set on a road with a low stone wall on the left side. Trees and bushes are on a hillside behind the wall. The image appears to be from the early 20th century. The artist is unidentified.
