Two men sit in a wood-panelled office, one of them still wearing a heavy overcoat, as if the visit was meant to be brief. The room's dark paneling and the formal arrangement of the pair suggest a business or legal setting from the early twentieth century, when such offices were where men of standing handled affairs and signed agreements. Pictures like this one, filed among family and gentlemen portraits, often blur the line between a working meeting and a social call, and the overcoat is the detail worth lingering on.
