Description
Photograph of Albert Einstein reading a book outside, [s.d.]. Einstein can be seen at center angled slightly towards the right. He can be seen looking down at an opened book he is holding in his hands. He is visible wearing a pinstriped suit and tie with two pens in his left jacket pocket. He has a moustache and his hair is frizzed and unkempt. What appears to be a container or mail box can be seen attached to a wooden post behind Einstein. A bush and tree can be seen at right.
