Photograph of a young child by t & j holroyd of harrogate. The photographers were brothers thomas holroyd (1821–1904) and james holroyd (c. 1825–1874). Thomas was a portrait and landscape painter, and james was a photographer, both from harrogate, north yorkshire, england. Although they were both credited, it was james who took most of the photographs. Notes: (1) very young boys and girls were dressed alike in the 19th century. (2) it may just be an awkward pose, but the child's legs do not look straight. Harrogate was a spa which attracted visitors looking for assistance with health problems. Date: between 1863 and 1872.
