Notes:        This lovely postcard features a mother and daughter in a loving embrace. The mother is seated in a dark wood chair and the girl, presumably her daughter, is dressed in a lovely dress with velvet trim at the waist and neck and cuffs. Her fingers are folded around her mother's neck and she has a bow in her hair. The mother is wearing a dark dress with an over jacket and a pointed lace collar at her neck. Both mother and daughter have lovely blonde shiny hair and very pleasing features. The mother’s hand is around her daughter's waist, and her fingernails are beautifully groomed, like the clothing; another indicator of their wealth.
