Three black men playing music. In the center foreground, a man plays a guitar, picking it with his proper left hand and holding its neck with his right. At left, a second man's head is visible over his shoulder. At right, a third man plays what could be a guitar or a banjo, though we see only his head and his left hand fretting the instrument's neck.

This black and white photograph represents an alley surrounded by brick buildings. The building that is seen at the end of the alley has an arched entrance. Emerging from the alley is a middle-aged white woman, carrying something in her left arm, with a full basket hanging from the same arm. A bollard stands in the middle of the alley entrance, and to the right of the bollard, in the lower right corner of the image, is another figure.
