This cabinet card, measuring 10 x 16, features rounded and gilded edges, in a golden yellow color. The family consists of a couple with two children and one adult. Considering the age of the characters, one can assume that the children are those of the young adult woman on the left side of the photograph. The father is absent; is he a military man on a mission, a businessman busy with work, or perhaps deceased?
The back of this cabinet card is blank, with no indication.
