James Seino, head of furniture decoration for the Stickley Brothers Furniture Co., poses with a three-panel, handpainted, oriental screen that depicts birds and flowers in a stylized landscape. In the workroom other pieces of furniture such as a table, chairs, a desk, and a highboy can be seen to the right and left of the screen. Seino, wearing a painters smock over his clothing, stands with his left arm resting on the top of the screen. In his right hand he holds a paintbrush and a stick used to steady the hand while painting.
