I’d be grateful for all interpretations with restoration works on this photo of my Grannie, Barbara Gentleman Smith by the talented artists on RC. She lived in Elgin, Morayshire.

A guess that the photo dates to WW1  but I’d welcome any thoughts by the experts on dating.

Thank you in anticipation!

Best wishes

Lovely work Arosh...
One from me. A bit rusty after a long break from restoring after spinal bone fractures prevented me from being able to work on photos. Just a simple clean and re-colour,
