Photograph of a drawing depicting an interior view of a museum, [s.d.]. Skeletons of several large animals stand on rectangular pedestals in a line at center. The roof is low on the right and over the smaller skeletons in the background, but is raised over what appears to be the skeleton of a tall mammoth on the left. A man stands in front of the mammoth, looking up at the skeleton, while the heads of two other people can be seen in the foreground.
