View of Crosby's Opera House, a five-story Italianate palace with a mansard roof, located on the north side of Washington Street between State and Dearborn in the city of Chicago. Here it is seen from a point on State Street, looking northwest. The street in front of the opera house—filled with people, horse-drawn carriages, and dogs—bustles with activity. A large tree, perhaps an oak, dominates the foreground at left of center.
Interior scene with a middle-aged bearded man seated to the left with a hat in one hand and his green umbrella leaning against his arm. A Scottish terrier is at his side, to the right. A young woman is seated at right with her right arm resting on a table with red tablecloth. Her knitting is on the table and the ball of yarn is on the floor. A cabinet with dishes is on the wall between the couple. A door is at far right and a straw bonnet and plaid shawl hang from a peg to the left of the door.
