A group of three children. There is a young suited boy seated in the centre with a standing girl holding a doll to his right and a standing girl holding a wooden horse to his left. Both girls have dresses with white lacy collars and the boy wears a suit, double breasted waist coat, bow tie and rounded collar. They all look to the viewers left. The girls have both moved during the exposure.
