A smiling woman in a pink and white striped garment is holding a young boy wrapped snugly in red, yellow, purple, grey stripes on her left shoulder. They are standing by a concrete wall with barbed wire attached to it. In the background through what appears to be an open window or door frame, another person seems to interact with someone else. The overall setting and attire suggest this photo might have been taken in rural South America during mid-century years.
