About this photograph
The Library of Congress holds this safety negative from 1937, showing Art Brown and his family posed by a tree. Theodor Horydczak made the photograph as part of his commercial photography practice in Washington, D.C.
The negative's title identifies the group as the Brown family, though the archive record provides no further information about Art Brown, the other family members shown, or the circumstances that brought them to Horydczak's attention. The "I" in the title suggests this was one photograph in a series taken during the same session.
Horydczak worked as a commercial photographer in Washington from approximately 1890 to 1971. His body of work now forms a named collection at the Library of Congress.
Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
