Men and Boy with Horse-Drawn Mower
A boy wearing a large floppy hat is sitting on a sickle-bar mower hitched to a team of horses. An older man, with a beard and a straw hat, and two younger men are standing beside the mower, in front of a large barn. An inscription describes it as a "farm family posed in front of old barn." The two younger men and the boy are wearing gingham shirts. All four men wear soft collar shirts and suspenders. |
