Envelope reads "Bernard R. Maybeck, architect." Negative shows Maybeck standing alone in a garden. The shot is from the waist up and he is turned slightly to his right. He is wearing a mixture of costume types: a button-up shirt with a bowtie, a Japanese hapi coat with Japanese characters written down the left lapel, and what appears to be some sort of high-waisted skirt(?) [also appears to be part of a traditional Japanese costume]. He is also wearing a beret.
