Man and woman sitting by a staircase

An unidentified African American man and African American woman seated near a staircase. The man wears a straw bowler to the side, a Beaufort square collar, and a three-piece suit with a handkerchief in his pocket. He leans back in his chair with his legs crossed and holds a cigarette in his left hand. The woman, seated to his left, tilts her head as she smiles at the camera wearing a striped, full-length dress with lace around the collar and sleeve hems.
