Description
An image of children dressed up. Some of the children have crosses drawn on their foreheads. There are 11 boys in the back and four girls in the front of the picture. There is a dog in the lap of one of the girls and a teddy bear is being held by another of the girls.
Notes
The children in this photo have a cross marked on their foreheads. This may be because it is traditional custom in the catholic religion to have an ashen cross marked on one's forehead at the beginning of Lent (40 days before Good Friday).
