Клиника Гросса

The painting depicts Samuel D. Gross, a seventy-year-old professor dressed in a black frock coat, lecturing a group of Jefferson Medical College students. Included among the group is a self-portrait of Eakins, who is seen at the right-hand edge of the painting, next to the tunnel railing, with a white cuffed sleeve sketching or writing. Seen over Gross's right shoulder (on the left-hand side of the painting) is the clinic clerk, Franklin West, taking notes on the operation.

Eakins's signature is painted on the front of the surgical table.
