Description
Photograph of a group of children seated around a man holding a large seashell, [s.d.]. Four boys can be seen seated on the edge of a tall step looking towards a man wearing a suit towards the right. The man is holding a large seashell in his hands. Five boys can be seen standing behind the seated boys and are looking down at the seashell as well. The boy directly behind the man is bent over with his hands on his knees. Most of the boys wear suits, except for a boy at center and a boy at right who can be seen wearing sweaters. The boy at left is visible wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a tie. A xylophone, stringed instrument, and flute-like instrument can be seen propped against the step on the ground at right. Three windows can be seen on the building in the background behind the wall behind the boys.
