We have 3 objects that Samuel and Joseph Fuller has been involved with.

Paper print of two women, one standing while facing the viewer (figure 1) and one sitting on a chair completely turned away from the viewer (figure 2) and slightly behind figure 1. Although both figures wear long white shoulderless garments, they are accessorized differently; figure 1 (on the left side of page) , wears a white sun hat with a pastel pink ribbon wrapped around, draping and flowing behind her, along with matching pink flowers sprouting under and above the brim. Additionally, she wears a mostly black silk shawl with muted primary colored paisely details around the boarder, it drapes diagonally around her body and she holds the two ends together gently in one hand. The black shawl matches her black satin slippers and black ebroidery pattern on the front of her garment. Figure 2 (on the right side of the page) accessorizes with a white sun hat wrapped in white ribbon that flows around her head and pastel blue flowers sprouting from the top as will as beneath the brim of the hat. She sits in a small green wooden chair. It is apparent the subtle colors on this paper print are hand painted.

A female-presenting person stands, wearing an elaborate pink hate and dress. The hat has a large, round brim with white and pink feathers billowing off the top and sides of it. The dress is open at the neck, with a lace pattern across the shoulders, with puffy pink shoulder pads and white sleeves. It has an hour-glass shape, becoming slender at the waist and expanding outward toward at the legs, becoming wide at the ankles. A colorful shawl with blues, reds, and yellows is draped over her left hand. Seated to hear left, facing away from the viewer, is another person wearing an identical outfit but in yellow color. She sits on a chair with a wooden back and blue cushion.

A female-presenting person stands, wearing a white bonnet and neck handkerchief, aand blue dress. Her dress folds over the shoulders, forming a triangular shape as it buttons at the waist. It then expands outward, getting larger as it goes down to the feet. A yellow shawl with green and purple spots is draped across the back of her waist and arms. Seated next to her on a purple chair with yellow tassles is another female-presenting person. She is seated in a similar clothing (her bonnet is blue and dress is tan), holding up a piece of paper, appearing to read it.
