Mourning dress

[Jaznjjj]

This is an unidentified subject who was in one of three photographs found in the effects of a relative's intestate file. I am assuming the black clothing indicates mourning and I am trying to get some idea of when clothing like this was fashionable in an endeavour to identify this person.  The relative was George Richard Seymour who died a bachelor in 1912 at Marrickville so the photograph pre-dates that event.  There was nothing on the back of the photographs, nor on the envelope in which they ended up.  Would greatly appreciate any clues please.  J

There's a Rootschat group who help date photos so you might like to post there.  I've had some wonderful help on that page.

Thank you.  I'll follow that up.  I've since learned how to resize photographs!  J.
