Black and white photograph of a book titled "Sketchbook of Figure and Landscape Subjects" by Francis William Edmonds. The book cover is rectangular with a dark border around the edges. The cover is white with several smudges and marks. In the top-left corner is a small white sticker with blurry black text. The sticker reads "J. M. HAVENS, / Dealers & Restorers, / No. 120 Nassau-st." There are several illegible scribbles in the top-left. The top-right corner shows "I = 44121" in black text and "5" in cursive. The right edge shows a white rectangle with blurry black text. The image is bordered on all sides by a plain white background.
