DescriptionView of the inside of a room with bare wooden walls. A bouquet of flowers in a vase sits on a large wooden island to the right. A set of shelves and a few steps that presumably lead upstairs can be seen behind the island. To the left, Helen Cheney (Bayne) sits reading a book. Frank Cheney sits in a chair to the right of her, elbows on his knees, and looks up towards her. Behind them is an open doorway that leads into another room. There is a large thermometer mounted to the door frame. The room depicted is in the Cheney family vacation home in Marlborough, Connecticut.
