Merriman children, Harpswell, ca. 1890
Item 17679 info
Maine Historical Society
A fairly plain setting surrounds Sadie, Ralph and Benjamin Merriman, the children Paul Sprague Merriman and Susan Dunning Randall of Harpswell.
The portrait was taken about 1890. Note that even though the children are grouped closely together, each is looking in a different direction.
The portrait suggests three individuals who happen to be photographed together rather than a close, cohesive grouping like the previous image of the Longfellow sisters.
