Albumen Print Of A Woman And Two Children In Front Of A Log House In Georgia

A reddish-brown photograph of an African-American family group in Georgia. The image shows a small log house with a picket fence in front. The fence has a gate which is open. A tree is on the right side of the photograph. Behind the gate is the front door of the cabin with three steps leading up to the door. The two children are sitting on the top step. A girl wearing a dark colored dress is sitting on the left and a boy wearing lighter colored clothing sits on the right. Both children are barefoot. A woman wearing a light colored dress with a dark colored top and a headscarf is standing behind the children in the doorway to the house. All three people are looking at the camera. There is a window to either side of the door; the one on the right side of the image is missing several panes and a light colored material is hanging in the corner. Printed vertically in black ink on the left side of the photograph is “FROM Clark’s.” Printed in black ink on the back of the photograph is “H.S. CLARK / Photographer / THOMASVILLE, GA.”. Artist H. S. Clark. (Photo by Heritage Art/Heritage Images via Getty Images)
