4 3/16" x 6 3/8" sepia family photograph. Kneeling in the front row are two boys in striped shirts, the older with a bow tie, and a black dog. Seated behind them are a man in a dark suit with a large beard and a woman in a dark dress, with a standing young boy in a light shirt with a white collar between them. Standing behind the father, one on each side, are a girl in a dark dress with a high collar and a somewhat chunky necklace, and a boy in a dark suit. There is a studio backdrop behind them, and a fur carpet beneath them. They all have serious faces, except for the dog who looks quite excited. "J.L. Richmond Campbellford, Ont" is printed on the bottom.
