Gentlemen.

 

 I used a photo of my grandfather Jan Smit seated and an unknown gentleman. 

The photo was taken Circa 1930 possibly in Clanwilliam, Cape Provence, South Africa.

   

 There is more information on the tags. The photo was restored and colorized by Restoring and Coloring Old Family Pictures, a Facebook group. The layout is 12" x 12". I have scrap booked photos of my grandfather before, you can see the layouts here and here.
