Description

A photographic tintype found loose in the 2008.005.213. A girl and a woman standing in a studio setting. The girl on the left has a dark cap on her head, light hair in a bang and hanging below her shoulder blade. She wears a knee length coat with velvet collar and cuffs that are darker and double-breasted buttons. Her ankle length skirt has stripes and ruffles near the hem. Her left arm leans on a rustic fence post. The woman wears a large, brimmed fur hat with her hair drawn to the back. She wears a long black coat with a wide fur collar and tippet. The long sleeves are also trimmed with fur. The coat is double breasted to the ankle and is hemmed with a fur band. The skirt is striped and ruffled like the girl's. The woman leans on the opposing rustic fence post of an Adirondack style fence. The background is painted to represent landscape with clouds.
