  1. It seems to be John Muir, sometime around 1910. He has been caught either in a contemplative mood, or taking a short nap.

  2. No way that's John Muir. Out of elements for him.

    Could this be Henry Huntington in his mansion?

    Perhaps it is Benjamin Eaton contemplating what he did by bringing water to Pasadena. As to where he could be, perhaps in the den of his Theodore Lukens (or maybe in his own den).

    Pre-television.

  6. On second thought, could this be Ezra Carr of Carmelita -- looks like a photo of his friend (and former student) John Muir on the wall
