Wade Home

Description

Sepia-toned image of five people standing in front of a cross-gabled house in a yard with many flowers and vegetation. Three women stand in a row in the front of the house, with another sitting in a rocking chair. The woman on one end holds either a cat or a puppy in her arm, and on the other end the woman holds a fan at her side. Three of the women's dresses have fitted bodices; the fourth has a loose dress gathered at the waist. A young boy sits on a horse at the right of the image, holding a rifle. He wears short pants and a hat. The house has curtains, and a number of plants are visible in the windows.
