Maggie Laura Walker at the family home in Richmond
Maggie Laura Walker, standing in front of fireplace in the parlor of her family home at 110 1/2 E. Leigh Street in Richmond, Virginia. The photo was taken on the eve of her departure for Bermuda in 1937 or 1938. She wears a floor-length dress with sheer sleeves. Her skirt is full with many horizontal tiers of ribbons. She is holding a lightweight wrap, perhaps, and clasps the fireplace mantel. In the cabinet behind her is a bust of Maggie Lena Walker.
