About MeCarte de visite of three children standing in a decorated living room or study. From left to right; there is a girl in a black checkered dress, with checkered tights and boots. Her hair is loose and in ringlets. She has her right arm resting on a small side table. The child in the middle is a boy wearing a kilt and sporran with dark stockings and boots. His coat is also dark with a white trimmed collar; his hair is styled neatly. His right arm is resting on the girl's shoulder. The third child is a little boy who is holding the hand of the other boy. He is wearing a long coat with a belt and white collar. Presumably all three are siblings. On the reverse the photographer's details appear in full.
