Description

Three people, a man, a woman, and a man, are standing in the basket of a hot air balloon as it ascends. They are wearing Victorian clothing and hats. A bag on the side of the balloon says "Spencer Balloon Highbury". A sign on the basket is too small to read. Miss Bacon may be holding a camera.

People shown: John Mackenzie Bacon (1846-1904), Gertrude Bacon (1874-1949), Stanley Spencer (1868–1906)

Original caption: "THE AUTHORESS, HER FATHER, AND MR. SPENCER MAKING AN ASCENT"
