content: A silver gelatin print depicting a black-and-white image of three young siblings standing on pavement in Central Park. Two sisters are standing on either side of their brother, each of them holding his hand, while standing sideways with their heads turned behind them. Each sister is wearing a flower-patterned dress, white socks, and black shoes. The brother is the only one facing forward but his gaze is not directed at the camera. He is wearing a horizontally striped shirt with dark color pants, a dark color belt, and presumably black shoes. In the upper left quadrant of the image is a partial view of someone’s proper right backside.
