An unidentified farm family had their portrait taken during the summer of 1930. We do not have the name of the family, but they lived in Vigge, a village about 500 km north of Stockholm. The family was a good sized one with nine children and grandmother. From the age of the children, the family is still growing. It looks like mother made the clothes, at least the girls' clothes. She and a daughter wear dresses made from the same material. The children wear very basic clothes abd go barefoot which was probably common at the time in rural Sweden.
