In the left, an African American woman, attired in a white headkerchief, a blue shirt and apron, and an orange skirt, bends over to pick up a basket overflowing with cotton. Behind her, an African American woman, attired in an orange dress, apron, and a blue checked shawl, stands with her right hand on her hip and her left hand balancing a large basket on top of her head. A man, attired in a white collared shirt with the sleeves rolled to the elbows and blue pants, walks and steadies a basket on his left shoulder with both hands. In the center background is a large wooden structure and a person picking cotton. In the right background a man attired in a hat sits on a horse and holds his right arm out to two people, one of whom carries a basket on their left shoulder. Hubbard L.

After Hart’s death in 1895, his brother-in-law operated the business into the 1920s, when automobile travel rendered it obsolete.
