Description:
Original label, verso - No. 619-Chinese amateur musicians.
Five seated musicians are each playing different musical instruments. There is a painted woodland scene as a backdrop and a leaf pattern carpet.
Perhaps we can identify which Afong studio by the carpet design or the props used.
