The image is an ex libris, or bookplate, from the Massachusetts Historical Society. The central design features a decorative frame that includes detailed ornamentation and scrollwork. At the top, the text reads "MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL SOCIETY." Below this, there is a circular medallion containing an illustration of a building or historical site, possibly related to the society or a well-known Massachusetts landmark. The medallion is flanked by decorative elements, including feathers or floral motifs.

Further down, there is a prominent rectangular plaque inscribed with the following text:
"BOUGHT WITH THE INCOME OF THE FUND BEQUEATHED BY JOHN LANGDON SIBLEY." Beneath this inscription, there is a space with the word "Received" — presumable to add particular details — and the number "19," possibly referring to the year or an inventory number.

At the bottom of the frame, there is a stack of books, with some titles legible on the book spines, resting upon one another. On top of the books is a lamp, a common symbol for knowledge or education. The entire design is finely etched and rendered in black ink, placed on a larger light-colored paper that serves as the background, giving the impression of a formal and archival document.

The design is traditional and suggests an institutional or library setting.
