The artist is seated at a table with etching tools, his head resting on his right hand, before a large, unframed portrait of a man wearing religious robes; to the right is another unframed portrait of a man that is propped against elaborate, carved shelving filled with metal and ceramic vessels. On the wall behind the artist hang a number of framed prints and a landscape painting.

“Some Fine Art Books.” The Graphic, issue 788, Jan. 3, 1885. "Part VI. of 'Artists at Home' (S. Low and Co.), contains the portraits of five very opposite characters—E. J. Poynter, R.A., T. O. Barlow, R.A., Macbeth and Storey, A.R.A.’s, and Mr. Gladstone. The volume fully sustains the promise of the earlier numbers, the photo engravings are excellent, and the letterpress brief and to the point."
