About this piece
ANTIQUE PHOTOGRAPH LOT — FANNIN COUNTY, TEXAS FAMILY, CIRCA 1900-1915
Five early photographs from the estate of a Fannin County, Texas family that later settled in Birmingham, Alabama. The group comprises:
- A young couple, head and shoulders, on a dark mount bearing the blind stamp of Foster Studio, Bonham, Texas
- A family posed before a two-story Victorian farmhouse, large format
- An oval portrait of a woman
- Additional portrait of featured couple
- A later group photograph of thirteen men in overcoats and hats before a brick wall, circa 1935-1945 (included with materials purchased from same estate)
The sitters are not identified. These come from the same estate as several identified pieces — a 1905 store interior from Ladonia, Texas, and an inscribed portrait pair naming the Moore family of Windom — which are listed separately. These were purchased from the estate of Jacqueline Diane McFarland of Birmingham, AL, believed to be a descendent of the featured couple.
