a family of five and a furry white cat sitting pleasantly in a sunny room filled with plants

Size: 1536×1229

In this black and white photo, the Britts, a family of five, and a furry white cat are sitting pleasantly in a sunny room filled with plants. “Mother” is writing in a book at a desk located in the corner of the room. She is facing the interior of the room as “Father” stands over her advising. Two teenagers sit on a sofa looking on, while a younger girl is seated on a wooden barrel or pail, holding a small furry white cat. The fuzzy, white, throw rug at her feet echoes the texture of the cat’s fur.
