    She's not wearing an apron but a "bunad", it's a traditional Norwegian dress

    The headgear indicates she is married, but she appears to be quite young.

    Not too young for marriage around 1890 to 1900, mind you

    She is not married. She has no ring on her right hand ringfinger. (:-)
    But she seems to be happy anyway.

    I have a Hardanger Bunad also. She looks young, but the linen head "scarf" implies she is married.
