Photograph of Winter at Valley Forge : The Relief/ by Yohn, F. C.

A photograph taken of what seems to be a public exhibition of school children's artwork, depicting various species of "Winter Birds" indigenous to the areas surrounding Highland Park.
While records do not exist to corroborate this conjecture, there is a high probability that this photo was taken during the time that Jesse Lowe Smith was a school teacher, and that these are the works of his students.
