Black and white tintype photo of a white mother and her baby. The mother looks around 40, wearing a black dress, staring at the camera with a blank and practiced stare for photos. Her baby, on the other hand, anywhere from a few months to a year, stares at the camera with a shocked expression, wearing a checkered blouse. The photo has been painted, giving the baby rosy cheeks, and the mother a gold collar around her dress and a gold necklace.
