QUARTER PLATE AMBROTYPE OF THREE WOMEN-1850’S

$45.00 SOLD

Quantity Available: None

Item Code: 37-370

Nice image of three women who may be sisters. They are posed with two seated and one, who looks to be the youngest, standing behind. Each wears a dark dress with lace collars and a necklace. All three have their hair gathered in buns on the sides of the head with a wide part at middle. The youngest has also braided her hair.

The image is clear with great contrast. The women’s cheeks are tinted and their jewelry is touched with gilt paint.

Because this is an ambrotype the back was blackened by the photographer to better see the image on the front. Over the years this blacking has chipped in several places causing blemishes to show up when the image is held to the light. However, the face of the image itself is fine.

Comes with a plain brass mat and decorative frame. [ad]
