Wilbur W. Johnson (United States, 1890s)


Figure 1.--This cabinet portrait shows a boy identified as Wilbur W. Johnson. He was 2 years and 3 months old. . . Wilbur is wearing a white checkered dress with a small frilled collar. It is a little difficult to make out the detail, but it is a jacketed dress. He is holding in his left hand what looks like a rag doll, but we are not sure. The studio is Jarvis in Pasadena, California. The portrait is undated, but we would guess was taken in the 1890s, in part because of the mount. Wilbur's hair is dione in ringlet curls, but a front sweep rather than bangs.
