The only thing we know about this photo is that it was taken in Sweden during 1937 and that the boy's name is "Nisse". (This was the name of a character from Scandanavian folklore.) It seems to be a chilly spring or fall day. Father is taking his young son (about 5) for a ride on
his bike. The boy is obviously wearing short trousers under his double breasted overcoat. Note the long beige stockings and low-cut shoes typical of boys' dress in northern Europe during the 1930s. The boy wears a woolen peaked cap. Perhaps an addition to Swedish boys' clothes
with perhaps a link to bicycle-riding.
