Here's a description of the image:

Overall Impression:
The image presents a scientific or archival setup, likely intended to document the properties of "Diatomaceous Earth" (Celite). It features a small jar, a painted sample, and a color reference strip against a neutral gray background.

Components:

• Jar of Diatomaceous Earth: On the left, there's a small, rectangular glass jar filled with a white powder, presumably the diatomaceous earth. It's labeled with a strip of paper that reads:

  • "DIATOMACEOUS EARTH"
  • "(Celite #110)"
  • "SiO2" (likely indicating the chemical composition, silicon dioxide)
  • "Johns-Manville" (manufacturer)
  • A number "182" is visible at the bottom of the jar.

• Painted Sample: In the center-right is a rectangular piece of card or board. It's divided horizontally, showcasing a gradient of color and texture:

  • The top section appears to be a light, off-white color, likely the "size" portion.
  • The lower section is a brownish, more textured area, indicated as having "linseed oil."
  • It has a label that reads:
    • "DIATOMACEOUS EARTH"
    • "(Celite)"
    • "above - size"
    • "below - linseed oil"

• Color Reference Strip: To the right, there's a small color reference strip with graduated grays, used for calibration of the photo.

Overall Composition:
The setup is well-lit, with the objects arranged to showcase the diatomaceous earth and its different applications and appearance. The neutral background helps the objects stand out. The image seems to be a scientific record or test of how the material interacts with different mediums or treatments.
