Description

Studio portrait of a woman who appears to be African-American with small white boys and girls. The boys wear suits. The girls wear white dresses and black stockings. Two girls wear necklaces. A small child holds a book. A second book, toys and a fur rug are on the floor. A painted studio backdrop depicts an interior with a fireplace, mirror, table and doors. Inscribed on back: "Aunt Lizzie." A similar photograph is inscribed "Uncle John." The names are probably those of the people the photographs were given to.
