We would guess that this is another American work, note the eagle on the mirror. Thisis a wonderful of the inside of a clearly prosperous middle-class home. The children are playing doctor. We are not at all sure about the date. We might guess that it was taken in the 1850s. The patient is a girl. The doctor looks to be a boy wearing a tunic outfit. The boy in the center wears a yellow jacket or tunic, it is a bit difficult to tell. The child on the chair looks to be a boy weraring a dress. I'm not sure if the child by him is a boy or girl.
