The image is a black and white photograph of a group of young boys standing on a set of stairs. They are all wearing white shirts and black trousers. The boys are arranged in a semi-circle, with the front row facing the camera and the back row facing towards the left side of the image. They appear to be of different ages and ethnicities. The photograph appears to be from the early 20th century, as there are no other people or buildings visible in the background. The date "28 Nov. 1948" is visible at the bottom right corner of the photograph.
