Photo-Session Styling


Kaunas, Lithuania, about 1935. I wondered recently whether my paternal Grandmother, Tatjana, wore a hat as a prop. Now I see that the photographer also snapped her while she wore a matching coat. It was once common to stage a shoot in which the subject wore outdoor attire. (See also here, here, and here.)

She looks very composed there.

Not forlorn or melancholy, but serious.

Back in the old days, there was a character actress, Celia Lovsky. She looks a bit like her.

I will look her up, thanks.
