Just found an old pic of my great grandparents Antti and Katri Rytkonen. This is probably turn of the century, my grandmother was born in 1905. I just thought the fashion and that table are worthy of a share.

Really cool table
Very interesting picture! I think they retouched her waist to look smaller.
Wow, my mom’s aunt’s surname is Rytkönen (it might he a really common name, I don’t know)
They really went wild retouching her waist 😀
Yes I would bet the O in the last name has the two dots on top..
The photo was most likely taken in a studio with props. Sometimes you can recognise which studio it was taken in based on the background and furniture
Where was this taken (Canada?US?).
I’m Finnish, but one set of my Finnish great grandparents actually met in the US, and then returned to Finland. I find these photos fascinating.
