The photographer, Philip E W Street, has noted on the back of the print: 'Oak bookcase designed by George Edmund Street, architect. In study, 12 Inverness Terrace, London. Plaster bust of G. E. S. by H. H. Armstead R.A. (the above bust was destroyed in the April 1942 air raids on Bath'.

Philip E. W. Street was the grandson of George Edmund Street and, in 1914, 12 Inverness Terrace is listed as the business address of his father, the architect Arthur Edmund Street.

The print was housed in a box labelled 'G E Street buildings', alongside other photographs of sites with connections to the architect.
