Figure 1.--These Bunos Airs children had their portrait taken, probably in the 1890s. The mount has pinked edges aand smooth corners. That style mount dated to about 1888-96 in the United Sates. We suspect approximately the same was true in Argenina. The children were unidentified. They look to be about 5-8 years old. The boy wears a colored blouse, detachable white collar, and floppy bow. We notice similar styles in both Europe and America. The Studio was José Caffarol in Bunos Aires.

We do not have much information on Argentine shirts and shirt-like gaments. We see Argentine boys wearing shirts and blouses just like boys in Europe and America. And we see the same styles and convntions as those countries. We see all the same styles, both blouses and shirts and detachable and detached collars. The styles, chronologies, and conventions seem virtually identical. We do not know of any unique Argentine styles. We do not have a lot if unformation on shirt-like garmnts, but hope to learn more as we expabd this section.
