Studio portrait. Sepia. Photographer: J. Farrar, Observatory Road, Cape Town. 4 x 2¾ inches mounted in brown card photographer's folder, 8 x 6 inches.
Notes
Bleek has her hair loosely twisted up into a crown. Her eyes are showing more deep set, as they increasingly did as the years passed. Marked in pencil at the top left outside of the folder "Doris" and in ink in Scott's handwriting "D.F. Bleek." She looks older than in the Rocklands Girls' High School, Cradock staff photographs taken in 1905 and 1906. These are reproduced in Bank 2006, p. x.
