Description
Photograph of a group of nurse-maids and their charges in a park in Hong Kong, ca.1900. A crowd of baby strollers (perambulators) are pictured on a park path at center, where the nurses are congregating. Some of the children are older, and toddle around the area, while to the left, a man in what appears to be a police uniform stands looking towards the viewer. Victorian-style buildings can be seen in the background.
