Stephan G. Stephansson’s personal library

A dark wooden bookcase with glass doors, filled with vintage books in Icelandic and English. The top shelf displays matching gilt-stamped volumes. A small sign on top reads Stephan G. Stephansson Collection. The case stands in a sunlit room with trees visible through a nearby window.
