Each girl is well dressed with some are wearing an apron or overdress. One girl is brushing the hair of a younger one; the girl seated on the floor holds a character doll with its hat on her lap.

These photos and another Nagel photo dated 1881 (2011.005.0128) were once apparently in the same photo album (donor stated they were not in an album when purchased, but were available at the same time.) ---- CDV
