In the first collection ever devoted to a once popular art form, 165 professionally posed photographs portray American and European children from the late 19th century through the early 20th century. Many shots reflect centuries-old concepts of the child as a miniature adult. Others depict tiny girls, in ruffles and bonnets, holding their brothers' hands. Dover Original.
