Children of the World is a collection of youngsters in their national dress.
While many of the countries that are represented in the collection may have changed or moved with the times, the clothes they wear are still part of the national consciousness of each of the countries represented.
Unfortunately, we cannot cover the whole world in fifty images, but the choices we have made are representative of the amazing diversity of culture that exists. While the images are from the 20th century, we like to think that similar faces to the children represented can still be readily discovered in our own century.
