Greek Families: Grandmother and Grandchildren (1930s)


Figure 1.-- Here we see see another Grek impage of three family generations in a portrait. We see the elderly grandmother, two daughters, and two grandsons. The boy look to be about 3-7 years old. The portrit is undated, but this and the postcard back portrait portrait suggests the 1930s. The younger boy wears a Fauntleroy-styled short pants velvet suit. The older boys wears a sweater and shorts.

Here we see see another Grek impage of three family generations in a portrait. We see the elderly grandmother, two daughters, and two grandsons. The boy look to be about 3-7 years old. The portrit is undated, but this and the postcard back portrait suggests the 1930s. The yoinger boy wears a Fauntleroy-styled short pants velvet suit. It may be a one-piece outfit, but we can not tell for sure. Floppy bows has gone out of style. But we have a slightly frilled collar and decorative front with matching wrist cuffs. The older boy has a white or light-colored, collared sweater and tie front worn with dark short pants. Both boys have white socks and strap shoes. We see both boys and girls waring strap shoes at the time. This was the case in many European countries. The younger boy wears three-quarter socks and the older boy kneesocks. The younger boy has his hair done in bangs while the older boy has parted hair. At the time many Greek boys had close-cropped hair.
