The image is an ex libris (bookplate) for Thomas Fortune Ryan, a notable American financial and business figure. The design features a detailed, ornate archway. At the top of the arch is a circular illustration of a tree, flanked by the Latin motto "MAGIS QUAM FOEDAR." Below this, the interior of a grand room is depicted in the center of the arch. This room is filled with fine furniture and decorative elements, suggesting wealth and sophistication. The name "THOMAS FORTUNE RYAN" is inscribed prominently on the base of the arch. An additional small detail is present at the bottom left of the image; a small owl is illustrated in a circular inset. The date "May 22 - 1913" is handwritten at the lower left corner.

This image presents a finely detailed drawing or etching framed to resemble a decorated archway. At the very top, within the keystone of the arch, there is a circular motif that contains a drawing of a tree. Beneath it, the area within the arch showcases an interior scene, possibly a room within an elegant house or public space, richly decorated with furnishings, artworks, and architectural details pointing to an affluent setting. The rectangular base of the arch has a phrase inscribed: "MAGIS QUAM," followed by "FOEDARI," which seems to be fragmented Latin text, typically signifying something about dignity or the state of being untarnished. Below this pictorial arch, there is a banner-like inscription saying "EX LIBRIS THOMAS FORTUNE RYAN," suggesting that this image is a bookplate (Ex Libris) indicating ownership of a book by an individual named Thomas Fortune Ryan. Bookplates are used to signify who owns a book and are commonly pasted inside the front cover. On the bottom left of the paper (outside of the drawing), there is a handwritten inscription with a date, "May 22 - 1913 - 2," which may indicate when the drawing was made or acquired. At the bottom of the image, slightly to the left, there is a small, round imprint, possibly a seal or stamp, featuring a pattern that is not entirely clear from the image. To the right of the drawing, fading into the paper, there is handwritten text, "The Studio," which might refer to the place where this piece was created or kept, or perhaps it is part of a series or collection named "The Studio." The paper itself shows some signs of age, with slight discoloration indicating that it is an object with some historical provenance.
