Not on view

An elderly spectacled doctor sits on a sofa beside a young woman. They look up startled at the sudden entrance of a man carrying a hat and cane through a door at right. The woman clutches at her skirt as though to pat it back into place. Shelves behind contain jars of specimens, a skeleton torso and skull.
