This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A black-and-white photograph of the Carmona family by Eli Reed. The image depicts six (6) unidentified members of the family gathered around a table and facing towards the camera, which is level with the table. In the center of the image is a man holding a child on his lap; both have their elbows resting on the table in front of them and the child rests his chin in one hand. To the left of the image is a woman and a young child. The child is in front and slightly out of focus. His or her head is tilted back to look at the woman. The woman, wearing a patterned top with a collar, is looking down at the young child. A man, standing behind the woman, is also looking down at the child.
