Footprint Detectives at Work

A brick-walled investigation house devoted to footprints,. Top left, a man with a magnifying glass sits at a round table in front of a wall of grid-lined prints. On the right, two men in bowler hats and coats lean over a table model of a street of houses, before a window onto a rooftop view with coloured routes drawn across it. Below on the left, a clerk in a waistcoat shows a print photograph to a man in a long coat at a counter. In the middle is a plaster casting workshop where a man and a woman trim moulds at a white table. The last room is a parlour where an older man talks with a young note-taker beside a corkboard of clues and a globe. Brick pillars mark off each room.
