    The parents do not look celebratory at all. I’d say that he looks hunted and she looks cynical.

      Well smiling for pictures wasn’t really a thing in the early days, afaik.

      They do look tired, though.

        That’s as close to an enthusiastic smile you’ll see in a German family portrait of the time.
