There are tall trees in the front yard of the house.The man leans an elbow on the fence and looks at the camera. He wears a single-breasted lounge or sack three-piece suit, a bowler hat, and has a mustache. The woman stands behind the fence and rests her hands on the railing, looking off to the side. She wears a patterned dress with gigot puffed sleeves, has curled bangs and hair pulled back into a chignon bun.
