Description
Photograph of camels at a zoo or farm, ca.1920. A woman in a lightly-colored suit and hat stands at center with the small baby camel leaning against her chest. The woman can be seen extending her right hand to the mother camel, which is taller and darker and stands to the left. Both camels appear to have their eyes closed. A tree can be seen in the background in front of a lightly-colored structure.
