Photo of two unidentified people, a seated man and standing woman of approximately the same age. The man is dressed in a three piece suit with watch chain and bowtie; his hair is severely parted and his mustache curled up at the ends. The woman stands with her hands clasped behind her back, emphasizing the horizontal stripes on her dress's bodice as well as its puffed sleeves and shoulder ruffles. Her hair is pinned back; she wears no visible jewelry. The studio setting includes a backdrop evocative of classical architecture, with painted column and urn. Caption indicates that the photo was taken by Rhodes.
