Photo of a Man Approaching a Frog With a Stick Probably in a Park in Baltimore, Maryland (1870's)

 

Portrait of a man approaching a frog with a stick probably in a park in Baltimore, Maryland, as two women in a rowboat in the background look on, c. 1870s. The frog might be a taxidermied example or else a model. The man might be a groundskeeper in the park. Taken by William Chase and originally published as a stereoview.
