DescriptionAdolescent Clyde Ross stands in the Cobb Studio in Albuquerque New Mexico for a portrait with his violin. He stands on a woven rug with a diamond pattern. Behind him are dark curtains. He wears a dark suit with a bowtie and holds a violin and bow in his hands, and looks at the camera. Clyde's hair is short and is parted to the side. Clyde Ross was the son of Arthur and May Griswold Ross, and a grandson of Governor Edmund G. Ross.
