Friederich wears a plain white sailor suit, a popular
choice for summerwear. Sailor caps were also very popular. Friderich
doesn't wear his cap here, but almost certainly he had a cap, perhaps
with "Deutschland" on the tally. Probably the plain white suits were
considered rather elegant. His mother may have had him wear a pinafore
when playing to protect his white suit. Even during the summer he
wears long stockings. He has high-top heavy shoes which would have
been very durable for play. Younger boys also had close-cropped hair
cuts.
Friedrich trägt einen einfachen weißen Matrosenanzug,
eine beliebte Wahl für den Sommer. Zusätzlich könnte
er auch eine Spielschürze tragen. Die Hosenbeine sind durch eine
Zugschnur (oder Gummi?) am Saum gebauscht. Diese Form des Hosenbeines
gab es auch zu anderen Zeiten. Sogar im Sommer trägt er hohe
Schnürschuhe, die sich sicher beim Spielen als sehr stabil erwiesen
haben. Auch kleinere Jungen trugen kurz geschorene Haarschnitte.
