Unidentified Bulgarian Sofia Family (1898)


Figure 1.-- Here wse see a cabinet card portrait of three brothers from Sofia. They look to be about 3-8 years old. They are all dressed alike in matching suits. When mothers decided to do this, often little details do not match, but here everything is perfectly identical. The suits seem a largely a Norfolk styled suit. The lapels seem to ne a touch of sailor styling. It looks like the boys are wearing jackets and vests, but actually it sems on sungle garment. Rather than bows, the boys have a string tie with tassel poms. The pants are bloomer knickers worn with striped long stockings. Also notice the low-cut shoes. At the time high-top shoes were more common. The date written on the back looks to be January 27, 1898. The studio is in script, but looks to be domething like D.A. Kapacmorhob in Sofia. .
