This is a sepia-toned photograph from 1913, taken in Corpus Christi, Texas, commemorating Emancipation Day. The scene depicts a horse-drawn carriage or wagon decorated with what appears to be cotton. In the carriage, there are three African American individuals. The person in the center is a man wearing a suit and hat. To his left is a woman wearing a dress and a large hat, and to his right is another woman, also in a dress and hat. The horse is dark-colored and harnessed to the wagon. A man is seen standing near the horse, possibly the driver or caretaker. The background shows a street lined with simple wooden buildings, likely homes or businesses. There are a few trees and a fence visible as well. The photograph has a vintage quality, with some fading and imperfections typical of older images. Text at the bottom of the image reads “Emancipation Day Corpus 1913 Christi Texas” and “McQuistan photo”.
