Description
Photographic portrait of Elbert Hubbard outside his workshop, ca.1900. He is sitting on the threshhold of the front door of a wooden siding house. His right leg is crossed over his left knee. He has a high forehead and long hair that sticks out from his head. In his right hand he holds a sheaf of papers or a book on his right knee. His left hand clasps his right shin. A plant grows at right in front of the house beside the front steps. Hubbard (1856-1915) was an editor and oft-quoted author who founded the Roycroft Community. He perished, with his wife, on the Lusitania when it sank in the Irish Sea.
