Portrait of a young boy

Photograph of a full length portrait of a young boy standing at the top of a set of stairs, facing towards the camera. He gazes to the right, away from the camera. The boy holds a broom in his right hand. He wears a cap, tartan scarf, dark colour shirt, dark colour trousers (both with light colour cuffs), dark colour socks and dark colour shoes.

Dr. Hugh Welch Diamond is now best remembered for his photographs of the mentally ill.
