Description
Photograph of a Samoan family in their front yard with water jugs, ca.1900. The family of five congregates with water jugs in between two opposing walls of plants. A man in a head dress squats on the left while a very young, nude boy stands at next to him at center. A young woman in a light top, dark skirt and head dress balances a large jug on her head just behind the small boy. Two more girls stand with cloths wrapped around their bodies on the right. A fence can be seen at the end of the path in the background.
