About this photograph

This photograph documents the Wright family in Riverside, California in 1925. The record identifies the subjects as Walter Lee Wright, Myrtle Barnes Wright, and their son Ralph Leon Wright.

The photographer's identity was not recorded at the time or has since been lost. Family portraits like this were typically made at commercial studios, though some were taken at home by travelling photographers or capable amateurs.

The image forms part of a collection digitised through California Revealed, a statewide programme that makes historical material from California libraries, archives, museums and historical societies publicly available. The programme brings together photographs from many separate local institutions across the state.

Beyond the names, location and year, the archive preserves no further information about the Wright family or the circumstances in which this portrait was made.

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