Family gathering restore and date if possible please
« on: Wednesday 17 September 08 19:04 BST (UK) »
Hello

Would someone have a go at restoring and dating this photo please?

A suggested date for this family gathering is 1913 - any thoughts?

Thank you

Hi VAT  :)

I'd say 1913 would fit pretty well with the evidence of clothing styles and hair etc.

Cheers
Prue  :)

Yes, looks about right to me too, although the skirt of the woman on the left is a little long for 1913, but I have a load of skirts that are unfashionably long as well... :D
