Ok, Greek. Are they your family, Happs? The parents and the older girls are dressed in their best clothing but the younger child has strange tight pants and nothing done to fix the hair. Is there a story here?

They are very distant family. I was wondering if people thought they looked quintessentially Greek for the time period or by today's standards, but based on the answers I received, not so.

Ethnicity =/= Genetics

While most ethnicities are dominated by a genetic type, but that doesn't make them the same thing. An ethnic Jew could be a red haired, blue eyed Ashkenazim or a Mediterranean Sephardim.

No idea what a "quintessential Greek" look would be. Not every guy in Greece looks like this or this...
