In this portrait of a graduating high school class in Breckenridge, Colorado, the man in the center wears a sack suit, silk tie and upright collar. The boys and girls around him all wear ribboned corsages, and hold their rolled diplomas. The boys are in suit jackets with white shirts and bow or string ties; the girls all wear white dresses with billowy sleeves, satin belts, ruffled collars and white shoes. A rolling mill on a table in the right is partly concealed by fabric; shelves behind it are cluttered with papers and an engineer's oil can.
