The vignettes include: a woman seated beside a wicker cradle with a small boy nearby; a wedding with a bride, groom, minister, and two attendants; a weeping woman and a small girl beside a grave monument; a girl standing in a field while a man plows with a team of horses in the background; a man, woman, boy, and girl standing outside a house; and farm workers harvesting hay and loading it on a hay wagon.
