Product Details

A beautiful original Victorian-era Carte de Visite (CDV) featuring a young woman dressed in fashionable late-19th-century attire. She wears a luxurious fur jacket, gloves, and a stylish ribbon-trimmed hat, posed in a classic studio setting. Photographed by Barrett Studio, located at 154 Clybourn Avenue, Chicago, this portrait is an excellent example of Victorian fashion photography. The blank reverse is typical of some studio-issued CDVs and gives it a clean, minimalist appearance.
