A black and white formal portrait of a group of women and a man seated by a creek. All of the women pictured are wearing dresses, hosiery, Mary-Jane pumps, and overcoats.  The man is wearing a 3-piece suit and tie and is seated in the middle with his legs crossed and hands folded in front of  him. In the background is a creek, some greenery, and what looks like the side of a mountain with classical statues displayed in the crevices.
