A black and white photograph capturing a candid moment backstage, where individuals are engaged in various activities, likely related to costume fitting or preparation for a performance. A woman in the center adjusts a garment on a young girl, while another woman to the right, wearing a hat, converses with someone holding up a piece of fabric. The setting appears to be an informal dressing area with a brick wall in the background and natural light streaming in from the side.
