Portrait of 3 Generations of women
3 Generations of women sit for portrait early 1900's.
Origin suggested is South American, found in an estate sale in Richmond BC, connection unknown.
Smiling was uncommon due to the time it need to take a photograph, also a reason for lack of smiles early on is that photography was poor dental hygiene and they took guidance from pre-existing customs in painting—an art form in which many found grins uncouth and inappropriate for portraiture, wide smiles were “associated with madness, lewdness, loudness, drunkenness, all sorts of states of being that were not particularly decorous.
Great image, perfect for framing in your home with a group collection of other interesting images.
