This image depicts a historical street scene in St. Petersburg, Russia during the late 19th to early 20th century. The primary focus is on an impressive neoclassical building with elaborate stonework and large windows that appears to be a public institution or museum, identified as part of the Hermitage Museum complex by its architectural style and prominent placement. The street in front of this grand structure has several individuals walking along the sidewalks and others interacting near horse-drawn carriages. The lighting suggests it is daytime with clear skies overhead, casting shadows on the buildings and streets that enhance their textures. Additional details include a red brick building to the right which might be another administrative or residential structure common in such urban settings during this era. There are also street lamps indicating infrastructure development for public spaces of the time period. Overall, the image captures an everyday moment from St. Petersburg's past with notable architectural beauty and historical significance. Further information about the print can be found through references like "Gosudarstvennyĭ Ėrmitazh (Russia) 1890-1910" which translates to Hermitage Museum in Russia during that period, providing context for the photograph's timeframe.

Refugees returning to school in Caserne. Colony of about 160 refugee children crossing the drawbridge into the ancient Chateau of Caen, which dates from the days of William the Conqueror. Within the enclosure of the Chateau barracks have been provided for these children to live in under the direction of the Prefet Mirman. Among them are 15 "Stars and Stripes" children, French wards of American soldiers, the funds for whose maintanence are administered by the AMERICAN RED CROSS

The image captures a moment of unity and hope. A group of children, possibly refugees as suggested by the context, are crossing a bridge into an ancient chateau that has been repurposed as living quarters for these children under the supervision of Prefet Mirman. Among them are children who are wards of American soldiers, funded by the AMERICAN RED CROSS. The children are dressed in a variety of clothing styles, indicative of their diverse backgrounds and experiences. The old-world architecture of the chateau contrasts with the modernity suggested by the presence of military personnel and American Red Cross involvement, creating a blend of historical and contemporary elements. This image evokes emotions of resilience, care, and the strength of human connections across generations and geographical boundaries.
