Description

A monochrome studio portrait shows a woman and a child in costumes sitting on a wooden block. The woman is wearing a shiny dark costume with pointy flaps at the shoulders and a matching head covering. She is holding a doll in her left hand that is dressed to match her. The child is wearing a dark dress with pointy flaps at the end of the sleeves and shiny dark boots. The child is sitting on the woman's lap, and has one hand on her hip. The background is a flat gray studio backdrop. The shot is lit with flat, even lighting.
