Show A studio portrait of a very young Frances Rosilla Burke, a Presbyterian missionary in Toquerville, Utah. This upper torso and head shot features Burke dressed in a dark colored button up dress with a light colored collar the folds down over the dress neck line. A dark cross is fastened around her neck by a dark colored ribbon. Burke's hair is parted in the middle with the sides flaring out and the rest of her hair pulled up in the back. Her head is turned and she is looking away from the camera. The photograph is oval and the background is a semi-dark colored studio backdrop. |
