This photo-post card shows the five brothers of an unidentified family. We think the family is French, alhough Belgian is possible. Unfortunaly there is no writing on thev back. The nack os a divided back Carte Postale post card. That suggets France, but is not difinative. Carte Postale postcards could have been made in Germany, but France is much more likely. The five brothers look to be about 10 years to the early-20s. The sailor suit does not look like a German suit which helps us to think this was a French portrait. The other boys wear suits, which have no national character. The next youngest boy wears a knee pants suit and long stockings. The porrait is undated, but the white furniture and divided back suggest it was made during the 1910s, probably the early-10s.. We often post images llke this without verifiable information. We make our assessment, but welcome reader insights.
