Here is a description of the image:

The image appears to be an inverted black and white photograph. In the foreground, there are several men standing together in what seems to be a public space, likely a street. Most of them are wearing suits and what look like medals or emblems pinned to their lapels. One of the men is holding an American flag, obscuring part of his body.

In the background, there are indistinct figures of other people, along with what looks like buildings and storefronts. There are signs visible on some of the buildings; one reads "$2 Sale" with smaller text below it ("20 50"). There's also a sign with smaller letters on another structure. The scene suggests some kind of event or parade, with a crowd and a display of patriotism.

The bottom of the image features text that reads "President and Fellows of Harvard College (Harvard University Art Museums)" along with the number "P1970.4345.0002", likely the copyright or identifier for the photograph within the Harvard University Art Museums collection.
