A small child, likely a toddler, stands on a grassy lawn with a basket of Easter eggs, the kind of scene that once played out in backyards and town parks across the country each spring. Egg hunts and basket displays became popular family rituals in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when color-dyed and decorated eggs were widely sold and given as gifts. Pictures like this one capture a domestic custom that was often recorded by parents with a box camera, so the image reads as much about everyday family life as about the holiday itself.
