The unnamed family that was photographed in an unknown photographer’s studio comprises a small girl, seated at the front, her older sister and brother, and their mother and soldier–father, the details of whose collar and cap badges are unclear. The handwritten message on the back reads, ‘Wishing you both a Happy Christmas’. || A real photographic postcard || || A photograph of a British soldier and his family || Front || Photograph

There is nothing on the front or back of this real photographic postcard to tell us who the pictured family are, or the name and location of the studio in which they were photographed. A small girl is perched on a table between her parents. There are no distinguishing badges on her soldier–father’s uniform. His face is in shadow, and it appears as though his eyes are half-closed. || A real photographic postcard || || Home Front || Front || A photograph of a British soldier and his family || Photograph
