Here we have a portrait of Fred arthur Rowe taken in 1903. He looks to be about 10 years ols which means that he was born about 1893. We know almost nothing about him, other than the portrait was taken in Spencer, Iowa. Ge wears a white shirt with what a double breasted kneepants suit. The portrait is unsual in that his jacket is worn open--unusual in formal portaits at the time. He has a bowtie, but it is difficult to make out the collar style. As was common at the time, he wears long black stockings.
