Here we see the photographer's wife Agnes and her brother Humphrey Chamberlain at 'home', though this well lit room is more likely to be the glass-roofed portrait studio that Turner set up over his business in the Haymarket, London, rather than an actual domestic interior. Turner has carefully positioned objects in this scene to communicate his family's interest and tastes: books scattered on the table and chair, a framed reproduction of Raphael's 'Madonna of the Chair' above the fireplace; a bronze sculpture, 'Stag Browsing at a Branch' (1843) by Pierre Jules Mêne, other sculpted figures and decorative candlesticks upon the mantelpiece; and an open portfolio at Humphrey's feet revealing the corner of Turner's photograph 'Cottage Bredicot Common, Worcestershire', a print of which is in the V&A collection (Ph.21-1982).
