Photograph of three children from page 14v of the Garnek family album

The photograph depicts three children in dark coats, lined up by height. The tallest boy, standing on the right, is dressed in a dark coat, with a black aviator hat on his head. He bears a strong resemblance to the boy in the two photographs from page 8 on the verso side, it is most likely the same child, slightly younger in this photograph. The girl standing in the middle, wearing a hat decorated with bows, let her left hand rests loosely along her body and rested her right hand on the shoulder of a smaller child (boy?), dressed in an ankle-length coat and a bright aviator hat tied at the neck with a wide ribbon. His hands are hidden in the sleeves of his coat. Unlike the older children in the photograph, the youngest has light-coloured shoes. There is a curtain behind the children, the floor is uniform (no visible planks or texture of possible carpet). At the right edge of the photo, an unidentified object lying on the floor is partially visible. The photograph's development flaw is drawing attention: a light brown spot in the middle of the top edge. Dating of the photograph based on information about the operation of the Pabianice studio at 63 Piotrkowska Street (see https://um.pabianice.pl/artykul/110/3062/fotografia).
