Horace M. Hale, President of the University of Colorado at Boulder, is in a folding, wicker porch chair, reading a paper. Martha Hale sits by him on the open, wrap-around porch of a two-story brick house with dormers, chimneys, stone sills and bracketed eaves. In a white dress, Miss Minnie Sanford sits on the edge of the porch, and Miss Gineva Coffin sits nearby, holding a hat. Old Main, in the background, is a four-story brick structure with arched windows and mansard roofed towers. Young trees are planted in the lawn around it.
