Affluent family on the lawn
Found image. I love the composition of this photograph. The family have arranged themselves very carefully on their well cut lawn. It even has stripes in it and the lawn roller can be seen in the distance. Father is centre stage grasping his pipe and mother is putting the dog through its paces. One son has what I take to be a fishing tackle basket on his knees and the other poses with his bicycle. For once the back of the card, which was posted in Teddington in 1910, gives a bit more information. 'Went over to Walton for weekend, so went jack fishing yesterday but no luck (except felt beastly cold).'
