Figure 1.--Here we have the Caplain brothers, Henry and Jules who lived in Paris. The CDV is undated, but looks like it may have been taken in the late-60s or early 1870s. The boys are presumably related to two other Caplain brothers, Frédéric and his brother. We are unsure about the family connection, presumably brothers or cousins. The boys wear matching tunics with wide-cut knee pants and white long stockings. They look to be about 4-6 years old.
