This media file contains a scanned page from a book. The text is from "The Inspector General" by Nikolai Gogol, as indicated by the title at the top of the page and a caption for an illustration below: "The inn scene, Meyerhold's The Inspector General. (From New Theatres for Old, by Mordecai Gorelik.)" The text depicts a dialogue between several characters: Judge, Charity Commissioner, School Superintendent, and Mayor. The Mayor is recounting a disturbing dream about monstrous rats and receiving a letter that he reads aloud. The letter warns of an inspector being sent to the province to conduct an inspection. The Mayor expresses concern about the inspector's arrival and advises precautions. The illustration shows a stage set design, likely for a production of "The Inspector General," featuring a multi-level structure with stairs, a room with furniture (a table, chairs, a bench), and a doorway. The text is black on a white background, typical of a printed book. The overall condition of the page appears good, with no significant damage or discoloration visible. The image is slightly angled, suggesting it was photographed from a book lying flat.
