Robert W. Service, British-Canadian poet and writer, often called "the Bard of the Yukon". Monte Carlo 1951.

In an informal portrait taken in Monte Carlo in 1951, the British-Canadian poet Robert W. Service, known as "the Bard of the Yukon," has a gentle expression. Dressed in a dark plaid dressing gown with a matching ascot, he leans comfortably on a marble-topped chest of drawers, his hands clasped. Beside him rest several books, including a prominently displayed copy of his own work, "Lyrics of a Low Brow." Soft light from a nearby window illuminates the intimate, relaxed scene.
