The second diptych in this portfolio shows two men of the cloth: monks enjoying some leisure activities. Austrian photographer Charles Scolik records the gentleman at left pouring himself a drink while studying a large tome. At right, Rochester, New York photographer and merchandise broker John Dumont captures a monk playing what is possibly known as an E-Flat Saxhorn.
