About this photograph

A family stands grouped beside a porch in this 1920 photograph by Theodor Horydczak, a commercial photographer working in Washington, D.C.

The image survives as a nitrate negative measuring 8 by 10 inches. Nitrate negatives from this period are chemically unstable and require careful preservation. This photograph forms part of the Horydczak collection held by the Library of Congress.

The record provides no information about the family's identity, the house's location, or the circumstances of the portrait. Whether this was a commissioned family portrait or part of a broader documentation project remains unspecified.

Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
