Family stories are much more compelling when you have a face to accompany a historical narrative. This post however is not about words but rather the lack thereof. In honor of Wordless Wednesday, I am grouping all of my favorite family photographs of de Büren women from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Enjoy!
Jeanne de Büren (1905-1996)
Natalie de Büren (1903-1986)
Cousins Alice de Büren and Cécile de Freudenreich
Alice Eugènie de Büren (1868-1923)
Jeanne Henriette de Büren (1861-1944)
Germaine and Amélie de Büren
Germaine Sophie de Büren (1863-1931)
Simply stunning portraits! My favorite is the one of Germaine and Amélie de Büren for showing us their intricate clothes.

Lovely portraits. Natalie in particular was stunning. I love comparing the differences in clothing styles from the 1880s to the 1920s, especially hairstyles and hats. I want Germaine's hat.
