A wonderful antique cased photograph featuring a young child posed beside a decorative chair. The image is housed in its original velvet-lined case with an ornate gilt mat, making it a beautiful example of mid-19th-century photographic presentation.
While the exact photographic process has not been professionally verified, it appears to be either an ambrotype, ferrotype (tintype), or a related early photographic image, dating from approximately the 1850s–1870s. Details:
• Original velvet-lined protective case
• Ornate gilt metal mat surround
• Child portrait in period clothing
• Estimated date: mid-to-late 19th century
• Untouched estate-found condition
• Displays beautifully
A lovely piece for collectors of antique photography, Victorian memorabilia, genealogy, or local history. This photo is from a Pelham historical estate.
