[Image description: A sepia-toned engraving of an elderly gentleman with a large, pale moustache in European outdoor clothing for a fine day in the late 19th Century, wearing a military style cap, sitting on a sunny set of stairs, smoking a pipe longer than his torso, free hand on one thigh, gazing across a dusty looking courtyard by a white house with many steps, trellises, and pillars, with various vegetation twining up it. Behind him, on the top of the step, is a dark dog with a pale muzzle, head down on the step as if snoozing in the sun. The caption reads 'Prince Bismarck's Favourite Seat at Varzin' with 'From a sketch made in 1882' written below it. There is also a watermark in the top-left-hand corner of a large, lowercase b and what appears to say something like Bridgeman Images Art History. End image description.]
