Interior scene depicting Oliver Cromwell with hat and cane in hand, standing in the middle of a room near a desk and empty chair. The desk is piled with thick volumes, with others are on the floor surrounding the chair. In the upper right, just out of Cromwell’s view, John Milton is seated on a window seat on the landing of a staircase.
