Dating of Studio photos Clapham - Hewson family
« on: Friday 05 July 19 14:09 BST (UK) »
Hello
I am wondering if someone would be able to date these 2 photos. Taken in Clapham, I believe part of the Hewson family. Same studio. Not sure if taken the same time as the background seems to be different.
Thanks

Hi

Hair style suggests 1908- 1912.

Gadget

Add - blouse front suggests the earlier date, so circa 1909

It looks to me like they were taken in the same studio, the table and cushion are the same but the chair is different. I would agree with 1909 date give or take a year.

Agree with the dates. That hairstyle was very short lived I'm glad to say.
The first lady is married if it helps.
So who got married 1908-12?
The backdrop is the same just a slightly different angle.

Thank you all very much for the info.  It’s so fascinating you can tell by hairstyle and clothes what year a photo was taken.  Jim1 how could you tell she is married? Is that a ring on her finger.?
