Reginald Marsh

(Oyster House)
n.d.

A colorful drawing depicting a lively tavern scene with three individuals. On the left, a person is slumped over a table, seemingly asleep or passed out, with a dark coat obscuring their face. In the center, another individual is seated at a table, drinking from a glass with a bottle in front of them, wearing a blue outfit and a hat, with a pensive or inebriated expression. To the right, a third person is seated at a small table, also wearing a hat, and appears to be eating or drinking. The room features a green curtain, a potted plant on a windowsill, and a framed picture of a meat cut hanging on the wall. The scene conveys a rustic and boisterous atmosphere.
