Description
Framed painting scene of an interior with a man in uniform sitting on the bed. Standard wooden frame, unpainted.
From the bedspread, the same as the one in Nude on a Bed, we can see that this is Edith's London attic home/studio. The model is likely one of her brothers or cousins who she accommodated while they were on leave from the war.
