A vertically oriented gelatin silver print highlights the high-contrast textures of an ornate marble fireplace. Centered in the foreground, a woman's sculpted head is surrounded by swirling, ribbed patterns. Above, a dark wooden clock with Roman numerals rests on the mantel's smooth shelf. Harsh light from the right casts deep shadows, while dark vertical forms reflect in a background mirror, enhancing the depth and polished surface of the monochrome scene.
