The painting depicts the entryway of a New England home with colonial furnishings typical of the 1930s. The doorway opens to reveal an eerie scene of a carpeted stairway surrounded by a vast sea. The wallpaper and walls gradually fade to reveal water, imagery which may suggest Guglielmi’s view of the erosion of American culture and values during the Depression.
