United States boys clothes: early-1900s Wylie family
American Families: Early-1900s--Wylie Family
Figure 1.--Here we have a family snapshot done as a cabinet card portait three siblings who aappear to be on a family outing into the country, perhaps a picnic, probably captured by a new Kodak Brownie camera. Most cabinet cards are studio porttaits, but mostly after the turn-of-the century we begin to msee some family snapshots done as cabinet cards, even more were done as postcard-back prints. All of this is helpful in the dating. The children look to be about 2-7 years old. There ages are not identified, but the age range could not be significantly beyond these ages.
Here we have a family snapshot done as a cabinet card portait three siblings who aappear to be on a family outing into the country, perhaps a picnic, probably captured by a new Kodak Brownie camera. Er say new because of the vprobanle datebof thebphotograph and the children seem rather uncertain about what us happening. Most cabinet cards are studio porttaits, but mostly after the turn-of-the century we begin to msee some family snapshots done as cabinet cards, even more were done as postcard-back prints. All of this is helpful in the dating. The children look to be about 2-7 years old. There ages are not identified, but the age range could not be significantly beyond these ages. While their ages are not indicated, the children are identified by name. They are the Wylie children--two boys and a girl (Roland, Ruth, and Robert). The writing looks more like Robut, but we assume it was meant to be Robert. There is no indication as to where they lived, but the foliage in the background looks like a northern state. The portrait is undated, but the fact that it is an outdoor snapshot and the style of the mount suggests it was taken in the 1900s decade, probably early in the decade. The older boy wears a broad-brimmed hat with a colored Fauntleroy blouse, knee pants and long stockings. His two younger siblings wear identical outfits, bonnets and dresses also with long stockings.
