Maine Historical Society
As they approached adolescence, children's poses and clothing changed, influencing the message suggested by the portraits.
Philip Eldridge Brown, the son of Alice Christine Ek (1881-1972) and Parker Augustus Brown (1882-?) of Portland, is wearing fairly formal clothing with the short pants indicating he has not yet reached adult status.
While his clothing is formal, his reading material, The Boy Scouts in the Maine Woods, suggests his interests.
Philip Brown (1913-1990) was born in Massachusetts.
