    The lady behind him also has a bit of a smile, and the one on the left looks to be struggling to express a smirk. I wonder when it became obligatory to force a smile for photographs. I once read that the grim expressions in old portraits were the result of long exposures - it's easier to maintain a neutral expression for a few seconds than a smile. Anyway, I'm glad the gent at the back is maintaining a bit of decorum with his grim expression.

    Funny because we've been talking about wristwatches on another Flickr Commons photo: Miss Fitzgerald's watch doesn't look very different from Miss (Dr?) Crossley's...

    pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) Lovely that Kathleen May Crossley was identified, and by her great niece! Yes, these early watches look very large and "masculine" compared to later 20th century women's styles with teeny faces - on the watches, not on the women ;)
