In the foreground is a table with six chairs around it, on an area rug. Another four chairs are arranged against the wall. The paintings hanging on the wall are all by George Romney: (from left to right) Catherine (Halhead) Burton (1789), Penelope (Rycroft) Lee Acton (1791), and Jeremiah Miles (1780-1783). Above the table is a metal and glass chandelier with electric candles. MS note on verso reads "HEH residence as art gallery: dining room." Stamp on verso reads "Keystone Photo Service, 1231 Olive Street, Los Angeles, Cal." This photograph appeared in Pictorial California and the Pacific in November 1930.
