This CDV portrait shows an unidentified boy and his mother. Allwe know about the portrait is that it was taken by Smith & Huey Photographer in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is an interesting portrait because it shows not only the popular cut-away jackets worn by boys, but the voluminous dresses worn by women. Notice the ruffles on the dress. The portrait is undated, but was almost surely taken in the 1860s. .
