About this photograph

A glass plate negative from 1920 showing a family group posed beside a house near its porch. The photograph was taken by Theodor Horydczak, a commercial photographer working in Washington, D.C.

The negative is part of the Horydczak collection now held by the Library of Congress. The 8 x 10 inch format was standard for professional photography of the period, allowing for detailed resolution and contact printing.

No information survives about the family's identity or the location of the house. The porch setting was a common choice for domestic portraiture in this era, providing both shelter and an architectural frame for the composition.

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