Answer 1

This is a photo taken in Tulsa, Oklahoma of my husband’s grandparents, Eunice and Hugh Hennen. They truly loved each other, and had a wonderful life together. She lived to be 100, and she told me that they did all the things that they wanted to do. They took several trips to see her sister in Colorado, and they even went to Canada a few times.

I don't know if I could put living couples on this profile. what if one person is dead would you be able to share it? Thats bot true but what if???

Hi Anne--

A photo's privacy level is linked to that of the profile it's related to.  So, you're right.  We can't see this one because their profiles are private.  Too bad; I would have like to have seen the hats!

Comments

John, portraits like this one always make me wonder how long they had to sit still while the painter did the painting.

Charles Jervas-1, an Irish Portrait Painter.   M, after thinking on the subject for a few moments, sittings came to mind, and upon looking up 1700's portrait sittings it suggested about 4 of about 1 1/2 hours each, although many more sittings could be required depending on the circumstances.
