Description: Mr. Chopper, Mr. John Osborne’s clerk, has dressed in his best suit and frilled shirt to meet his client. He is putting on his gloves and has an umbrella tucked under one arm. Beside him, his wife is smiling with her arms folded, and one of his daughters looks up at him eagerly with her hands behind her back. Another one of his children can be seen peeking around the corner, also smiling.
