DescriptionA brick, two-story residential home with a dormer roof and window. The home is on North Fourth Street in Albuquerque, New Mexico within the three to four hundred block area, looking east. Two women pose outside the home. One sits on the steps leading to the front porch. She wears a button-down collar-less long sleeve top and checkered long skirt. To the right, standing in front of the porch, is another woman in a princess line style black outfit. Her long-sleeved top has gigot puffed sleeves, laced collar, tailored bodice with a corset beneath, and long skirt with a bustle. There are two small trees in front of the house with small buds on the branches. The Sandia Mountains can be seen behind the house, to the right, above a small shed. Silver mirroring and emulsion deterioration is occurring on the glass plate creating color distortion in the image.
