Show This photograph is a portrait of a very young Frances Burke, a Presbyterian missionary and teacher in Toquerville, Utah. The portrait is a straight forward shot only showing Miss Burke's upper shoulders and head. She is wearing a dark top with darker vertical stripes and lightly colored buttons down the front. The top has a light lacy collar. Burke's dark hair is parted in the middle and pulled back behind her head making her small, dark hoop earrings visible. A pink tone has been added to Miss Burke's cheeks to create the appearance of blush on the black and white photograph. This photograph is very small and placed in a decorative copper, oval shaped mat and then onto a larger rectangular cream colored mat. The larger mat has two decorative, light maroon colored lines around the outside edge, one straight and one curvy. |

At the bottom on the front of the mat is typed in black, "Field, Artist, 112 W. Fifth St. Cin'ati." On the back of the mat at the top, "Miss Burke as little girl," is handwritten in pencil with "little girl" underlined. Below this writing, "L-3" is written in darker pencil. The photograph is in good condition except for two large fingerprints on the front and back of the mat probably from handling the photograph. Frances R. Burke was a Presbyterian missionary and teacher for over forty years in Toquerville, Utah. For further information about her see: Brimhall, Sandra D. and David A. Hales.
