Description
This is a formal cabinet card portrait of a family consisting of an elderly woman and younger couple. The photo was professionally done. "Paterson, N.J." is written on the bottom, as well as something illegible [photographer's signature?].
The man is wearing a suit with a long buttoned jacket, and a bow-tie. He has short hair combed back and a beard. He is holding a bowling [?] hat in one hand and onto his coat with the other hand. The woman is wearing a long white dress with a collar up to her neck and long sleeves. There are some beads by her neck. Her hair is pulled back and close to her head. She is holding one hand daintily in front of her stomach and has her second hand on the left shoulder of the elderly woman. The elderly woman is sitting on a decorative wall, while the younger woman is standing behind it and the man is standing in front of it. The elderly woman is wearing a long black dress with long sleeves and a long, white, v-shaped collar with buttons by her neck. She is also wearing a bonnet. Her hands are folded in her lap. There are faded stairs behind the man, and bits of grass by the elderly woman's feet.
