Description

An unidentified African American woman smiles as she is seated on a baby grand piano bench and leaning her left elbow just above the piano keys as she holds a violin with her left hand and holds the bow with her right hand resting on her lap. She has a flower in her hair on the right side above her ear. She wears a necklace, a wrist watch on her right wrist, and a full-length, full-skirt light-colored evening gown with puffed sleeves and a sweetheart neckline. A desk lamp sits on the piano. A picture of a palm-lined street is on the wall above the piano. A floor lampshade is on the very right side of the photograph.No datelikely circa 1950Digitizing agency: University of Missouri--Kansas City. Library. Dr. Kenneth J.
