A black-and-white glass slide showing a man sitting on a chair with arms folded over his knees. He is looking to his left at a spirit, partially superimposed over his left arm and chest.
This is a good example of the sitter being directed where to look so the spirit could be superimposed carefully into the photo. The pot plant completes the composition.
