IV073-h3 Brewster is the circular crater in the upper left. The larger circular crater in the lower right is Franck. The smaller craters are not named, but the large enclosures partially visible along the top margin are Römer R (upper left) and Römer T (upper right); and Brewster and Franck are themselves in Sinus Amoris.
