Original antique cabinet card photograph featuring a finely dressed young adult in a studio bust portrait. The sitter is shown wearing a dark jacket, vest, high standing collar, and necktie, with a prominent late-Victorian moustache and neatly groomed hairstyle. The mount is marked: Pittsburgh, Pa.
101 Fifth Ave. A handwritten date on the reverse reads: 11-20-’93 This provides an unusually precise date of November 20, 1893, adding significant genealogical and historical appeal. The portrait exhibits the clean, minimalist studio style popular during the early 1890s, emphasizing the sitter’s clothing and appearance against a plain background.
