  Paid whom? The photographer or the family?

• Mike said:

  They're still dressed better than most people today!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Michiel2005 You're right. Sorry, I was unclear... Mrs White paid A.H. Poole photographers to take this photo.

• Swordscookie said:

  This is just so powerful on so many levels that it is hard to look at, hard to see and hard not to feel deeply moved by it. Three times over the past twenty four hours members of my family have mentioned the homeless and the current weather conditions and then this photograph appears, what a powerful image to reinforce that problem? If Mrs. White paid to have this photograph taken it was not for her delectation but to be used to illustrate a point and we are the beneficiaries of her munificence. This shot is so stark and such a powerful reminder of the brutality of poverty and how it can affect across those generations. Super if disturbing shot Carol, thank you for the reminder!

  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Sweden before 1945, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Queen Mary and Eliz. of York (LOC)

  Mary of Teck, wife of George V, and her granddaughter, the current Queen Elizabeth II, born 21 April 1926: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_of_Teck en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_II The picture is dated 6/18/[19]26 in the upper left corner, so a bit of a latecomer in the Bain collection.

• trialsanderrors said:

  This picture apparently goes with this;

• skillful north said:
