Figure 1.-- We also see the five boys of the Ladefoged family posded in a stair-step portrait. Four of the boys are done up in identical sailor suits. They were photographed in Sundsøre, Denmark. This is a town in northern Denmark on a substantial lake. We don't have a precise date for when the photograph was taken, but it was sometime in the late-1910s. The boys are barefoot, not all that uncommon during the summer in Scananavia.

The boys are barefoot, not all that uncommon during the summer in Scananavia. Only the younger boy wears shoes which was a little unusual. The boys look to be about 2-12 yars old. The younger boy wears a tunic suit with decorative detailing. His bothers wear sailor middy bloues and short pants and are all barefoot. Sailor suits seem enormrous popular in Demark at the time. All the boys have close-cropped hair. They so not seem very happy about having their picture taking. We are not sure why. Usually boys this age like having their picture taken because of all the attention.
