Photograph

Description:

Photograph. Sepia-toned panoramic photographic print of a 70 piece orchestra with conductor, posing on a stage with their instruments. The musicians are on a four-tiered horseshoe-shaped platform. The conductor and pianist wear suits, the harpist wears a gown, and the rest of the musicians wear uniforms consisting of pants with a light stripe along each leg; jackets with embroidered sleeves, and shoulders, and no lapels; and band-collared shirts. The stage backdrop is decorated to resemble a neo-classical room. "Copyright Spencer & Wyckoft, Detroit, Mich. 1919" printed in lower left corner.
