Portrait of two unidentified young boys, wearing striped dresses and lace collars. They may be connected to the family of Sidney Harper Marsh, first president of Pacific University; the image was found within a run of photographs related to the Marshes. This portrait was made at the W. H. Gilhousen studio in the Dalles, which was active between 1879-1888. It most likely dates from the 1880s.
