Print, Photographic
Pair of sepia-toned photographic prints mounted to opposite sides of a page from a photo album. Photo on verso is a view of the Russell House on the south east corner of Campus Martius as taken from an elevated position, across Campus Martius, likely from City Hall. Woodward extends to the right, and Cadillac Square to the left. The Michigan Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument is near the bottom center, and the moonlight tower in front City Hall rises on the right. Horse carriages, electric streetcars, and pedestrians are in the streets below. A banner promoting a banquet honoring William Jennings Bryan is hung over Woodward. A sign for Farrand, Williams & Clark is visible in the background as well.
Recto bears a photo of two men, in suits, ties, and hats, seated next to two women in hats and long dresses. They pose outdoors in front of several other tables and chairs, a mounted deer, and a canoe serving as a flower planter. A small footbridge over a narrow canal, leading to a long single story building.
The page both photos are mounted on is made of grey cardstock with a flexible two ring binding on the inner edge.
