with the button over boots, the loose blouse and matching high waisted skirt, coupled with the three quarter sleeving and the hair style I would be with gadget on the date line as being between 1912 and 14 and would even stretch to 1916 at its latest.

Thank you all for your comments and lovely restores !

I am off to check out the exact year she was married hoping after sparrett's comments that will give me a closer date.

Jim......it appears she has gone on a bathroom break... ;D ;D

Well I can't add anything re. the date as I concur with Gadget and OR (just prior to or at the very beginning of WW1) but just wanted to pop in and say WOW!  She is gorgeous, and that photograph is wonderful - the details in the backdrop and the little table are quite different from any English/Scottish etc. portrait of the same date.  Really beautiful.

Prue  :)

You should have seen the really large one that Dolly posted at the beginning, Prue. That was something else  :o

I think I might have been the only one to see it  :-\

Unfortunately I missed the large one and have only just seen this one...

Jim, that is really beautiful :D mind you she is a stunning girl!

The little table - do you think it is a needlepoint stand with the ring turned horizontal with a cover on it? its about the right size
