In a children's ward, several doctors are standing around another doctor, who is seated with a child in his lap. There is another child seated on a stool nearby.
A doctor, nurses and several patients are seen in the ward. Some of the patients are in their cribs or beds, others are seated in rockers or at tables.
Five doctors are seen taking part in an operation. One of them is administering ether(?) to the patient by holding a cone over his nose and mouth. This is a print, not an original photograph.
