In the first, I believe the photographer may have been my Opa, Tante Gien's brother-in-law, while in the second it was my mother, Tante Gien's niece.Brett Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706734864792449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-39577248454705574612009-06-21T12:19:51.882+12:002009-06-21T12:19:51.882+12:00:):)Brett Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706734864792449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-56978440874769745122009-06-21T06:33:58.080+12:002009-06-21T06:33:58.080+12:00A younger Tante Gien seems a little uncomfortable ...A younger Tante Gien seems a little uncomfortable with the tiny boy placed in her care for the photograph. See how her hands don't quite hold onto him? But then when the charmer that was "you" hurried to have his picture taken with her (perhaps to get another guilder)she was relaxed and felt free to hug you close for the photographer.<br /><br />I'm sure she would have married in June if she had chosen to marry!Judith Richards Shuberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499186334451409604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-51538462960435992172009-06-13T13:39:32.930+12:002009-06-13T13:39:32.930+12:00Thank you, Greta.

The contrast between the two portraits is also interesting.
