This is an unidentified Decker water-color portrait. We see a destinuished looking farher, presumably living in Vienna. The father wears a a short brown jaket. His trousers match the vest rather than the jacket. He has a black stock as was common at mid-century. His little boys looks to be about 2-years old. He wears a blue checked tunic with white pantalettes. This along with the other Decker portraits suggests that the tunic was a popular boys' garmenbt. He has white ankle socks. If you look in the background, you can see the boy's rather large staw hat, with a hat band to match his tunic.
