DescriptionThree-quarter length studio portrait of Hannah Latimer Cheney as a toddler. She is seated and looking off camera to the right. Hannah is wearing a light-colored dress made of eyelet lace. There is a ribbon around the empire waist that has a floral appliqué attached to it. There are thin ribbons tied in bows at the cuffs. Hannah's hair is curly and somewhat tousled.

NotesDate note: Note on back of photograph indicates that the photograph was taken in 1914. Hannah was about two years old.

Photographer note: The printed photographer's label on recto, saying, "PETERSON", may refer to The Peterson Studio in Hartford, Connecticut. This is inconclusive.
