The photograph shows 5 people: 2 women, 1 man and 2 children. The women are seated and wear national costume, with headbands from which white lace veils fall onto their shoulders. The woman on the left has braided hair, and the one on the right wears jewellery on her chest. The man stands behind them holding a baby, and between the women stands a little girl in a light-coloured dress and headscarf.
