Product Details

Original 19th-century uncased tintype photograph featuring a striking portrait of a gentleman. • Image Details: The subject has a brilliantly intense, slightly asymmetrical gaze that gives the portrait a uniquely haunting character. He is sporting a classic mid-1800s "chin curtain" beard and a crooked bowtie. • Condition: Uncased. The back shows paper residue and tarnishing, indicating it was historically mounted in an album or case. The front plate shows typical surface wear and dark, moody contrast. • Size: Approximately 2.5" x 3.5" (Sixth-plate size). A fantastic, character-rich addition to any vernacular photography collection. See photos for details. Thanks!
