A soldier's family of six
Four children – a girl and three boys – visited an unknown photographic studio to pose for this photograph with their parents. Their mother’s shoes are notably shabby, as are those of her younger sons and daughter. Their soldier–father wears a bandolier, but no further distinguishing details are visible on his uniform.
