I love these old "linen-finish" cards with their goosed-up coloring. In the middle background we see rows of seated people and, in front of the third row in from the left, we see someone sitting on a raised platform facing them. There are people standing around watching. I wonder what's going on ! Calisthenics, perhaps !
