Probably 1930's. That's my great grandmother in the center. As a young man her husband was a major in Pancho Villa's army. Later they were ranchers. She had 11 children.
Abuelita - very lovely and the two young women looking so fresh and young. You might enjoy reading a book by Maria Arana, "American Chica", about her childhood spanning two cultures - her mother was an American and her father was Peruvian. It's a very fascinating look from a childs eye.

I find your photographic projects fascinating. My only wish is that you would include a bit of text to let us know a more about the images.
