Douglas' parents about 1909 had a portrait painted of him. He looks to be about 4-5 years old. The pportrait would have been done about 1909, but we do not have a precise date. I'm not sure who he artist was, but he did a beautiful job. Douglas is wearing a white tunic suit with blue trim. He wears matching bloomer knickers with it and white long stockings. His hair is cut in bangs.
