The Haugen Family (Norwegian, 1915-19)



Figure 1.-- The two oldest Haugen boys are dressed alike in tunic suits with wide leather belts, knee trousers, black long stockings, and hightop shoes. Note the white sailor-style collars which include a scarf tied in front. The smallest boy, sitting on his father's lap, seems to be wearing a tunic also (but without the white collar and scarf). The photographer was Paul Stang. Note the impressive Norwegian moutain scenery in the background.

This is a family portrait of the Haugen family, probably taken around 1915-19. Olaf Gjertson Haugen was a Norwegian carpenter. He is shown here with his wife Ĝliegaard and four of their seven children. He moved to Stongfjorden from Nordjfordeid. The family left Stongfjorden in 1922. The two oldest boys are dressed alike in tunic suits with wide leather belts, knee trousers, black long stockings, and hightop shoes. Note the white sailor-style collars which include a scarf tied in front. The smallest boy, sitting on his father's lap, seems to be wearing a tunic also (but without the white collar and scarf). The photographer was Paul Stang. Note the impressive Norwegian moutain scenery in the background.
