Summer Whites

 
Vilnius, Lithuania, about 1920. This is a portrait of Valerie's family. Valerie was the older sister of Suzanne—the wife of my Dad's cousin Henry.
 
Thanks to Suzanne's Granddaughter—my Kaunas Cousin—for making this photo available to us.

I would have guessed 20 years earlier or, at least, pre-war.

Mama's expression is interesting.

I thought so too, but the identity of the woman roughly dates the photo. She would have been born in about 1902 to 1905.

I have a firm date for this photo; I think the clothes look a little dated in it, too.
