It can be a fun family pastime to create stories around these portraits. Perhaps this Guinea pig was the ancestor of one of your family pets. He fought valiantly on horseback against his enemies, and was victorious. He and his piggy solders ravaged the countryside of the lands they had conquered. They took all of the valuables;  lettuce and cucumbers that had been grown by the farmers. The peasants were left to eat dandelion leaves to keep from starving. His luck turned later, and he met a fate he deserved. But that’s another chapter; one for you to write!
