These Swedish siblings look to have been photographed during the 1910s, probably the late 10s. We would be tempted to say 1920 except that the boy's knee trousers are a bit longish for the 1920s. Notice that the girls are all dressed alike. The fact that the same checked material has been used suggests that the dresses were home made by their mother. The two older girls have dark hair bows. We are not sure about the color. The boy's sailor suit is a traditionally styled sailor suit with knee pants and black long stockings. The boy looks to me about 10-11 years old. Notice the oval family photos on the wall behind the children. A reader writes, "Notice the boys long knee trousers. I wonder if it was either bought or
sewn big for him to grow into. The cuffs on the blouse also look large."
