Description

Two men and one woman are standing near displays of fabric in ornate patterns. One of the men is holding light colored fabric that has been partially unrolled from a long bolt of cloth. Many different types of fabric are visible, either folded and placed on table or hung around the room. Sheer fabric woven in several different patterns is hung across across several windows. The number “221” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. The number “2” has been written in the upper left corner.
