 Here we see a Montreal boy with stuffed dog.  On the back of the portrait is written  "Paul Laiselle 4 ver 5 ans".  This tells us that Paul was almost 5 years old.  He was photogaphed by H.E. Archambautt at "2204 Rue Notre-Dame Pres de la rue de la Montagne Montreal"  I believe the hair stle would be called a choupette, but it is a little different than others I have seen.  The portrait is undated, but was probably taken in the 1880s.  We would guess the early 1980s.  He wears a knee pants suit.  The jacket looks to be a cut-away style, although this one does not open up like many we have seen.  He alsp has a roubded lace collar with a modest bow.
