Description Engraving entitled "The Sister" found in large folio in Eleanor Norcross Collection. Depicts young girl rocking her baby sibling to sleep. She is seated on a low stool, with a mixing bowl on a table behind her. The room is very plain and the wall behind the baby looks cracked and old. The girl is dressed in a simple white blouse, and a large, loose skirt with a look of boredom and duty.

"Engraved & Printed by Illman Brothers."
"Engraved expressly for Peterson's Magazine."
