English Families: W. Roberts Family (1914)


Figure 1.-- This studio portrair shows the W. Roberts family, probably from Birmingham, a huge city. We see mother and father and their three children who look to be about 3-11 years old. The children are all emaculsately done up with for the portrait with their hair combed. Baby sister wears a white dress and twin hair bows. The boys wear lapel jacked suits, both single and double breasted jackets. The younger boy has a kind of sailor collar and short pants. The older boy has a tie and smart Eton collar. He seems to be wearing knickers.
