Purnell is standing next to a small table with a brush, comb and his hand on a silver trophy.
Note
Cap and clothing made for him at colony tailor's shop, as all members had a suit of clothing made for them at the shop. The picture is symbolic of the story of Joseph in Egypt wherein Joseph has his silver cup hidden in Benjamin's corn sack.
