This design shows the Golden Gate in San Franciso, before the bridge was built, framed by the flags of the USA and Great Britain. Adèle Hannah Mack (1886-1973), an American, married in 1904 an Englishman named James Gerstley (1867-1955) who worked for a chemical firm that specialised in food preservatives, and was twice her age. They both lived to be 87 years old but died 18 years apart.
