The image is a photograph of a certificate issued by the Births and Deaths Registration Act, 1874. The certificate is titled "Certificate of Registry of Birth" and is signed by Arthur Sydney Rose. It is dated September 1874 and has been duly registered by me at Entry No. 299 of my Register Book No. 17. 

The certificate is printed on a piece of yellowed paper with red ink. The text on the certificate reads "The undersigned, Do hereby certify that the Birth of Arthur Rose, born on September 1, 1876, has been fully registered by the Registrar Book No."

At the bottom of the certificate, there is a signature that reads "Registers of Birth and Deaths, Sub-District." The certificate appears to be old and worn, with some creases and discoloration on the edges.

Overall, the certificate is a formal document that certifies the birth and death of a person named Arthur Rose.
