PHOTOGRAPH: BACK GARDEN, DAISY BELL COTTAGE

c. 1900
Overview

Black and white photograph of the rear garden at 'Daisy Bell Cottage', Peel Street, Jolimont, early 20thC.
A family group is seen in the garden of their small cottage, surrounded by flowers, ferns, and a variety of other plants in garden beds and lining the garden path. The woman is standing at the left of the group, with one hand on her hip. She is wearing a light coloured blouse and skirt, with her hair up. The man is seen in the middle of the group, seated, wearing a hat, white shirt, and dark trousers. There is a small girl wearing a white dress, seated to the right of the group, though close to the man, in what appears to be a small chair. A circular object can be seen shading the child from the sun. A well with a windlass is seen on the left side of the image. Only bushland can be seen beyond the boundary of the garden.
