An 1860s seated, knees-up, two-thirds view oval albumen studio view of a slightly balding, fireman or policeman with mustache and goatee. The photographer has blacked out the background to highlight and vignette the figure. He wears a single-breasted dark frock coat open to show dark vest, with brass buttons, like the coat, and dark trousers. He has a large shield on his left breast. His visored wheel cap with the number “10” in wreath on the front sits on the table beside him, on which he also rests on arm. The image is oval, about 5” by 7” mounted on an 8” by 10” card mount with oval thick and thin gilt borderlines. The edge next to the image shows some foxing indicating there was likely another mat over it and the image was in a frame at one point. The vignetting of the figure gives it some forcefulness.    [sr][ph:L]
