Second trip to Winneconne, WI

#121
Picture 2 of 23

Photo ca. 1922. This image appeared on calendars as a color print titled "The Morning Lesson." These same three models were featured in a painting by R. Atkinson Fox, which appeare don calendars under the title "The Children's Hour." In it, the models wore the same clothes, indicating it came from the same photo session as this one. Tonnesen later identifed the child shown at center as a girl.

These images represent the complete group of the scans that I did on my second visit to the Winneconne Historical Society. The entire contents of the Winneconne Historical Society collection of Beatrice Tonnesen images has now been digitized and is displayed in large versions in Album 15 of the Catalog on this site. Lois will be adding some information to each image that is viewable by rolling the cursor over the image.
