jamieThe subject is definitely 1870's- early 1880's but I'm having a hard time identifying whether it's period or via what style of photographic method it was produced.
The paper measures 11x14 so it's fairly large. The front has a matt pebble surface and the back has no texture. The paper itself is about as thick as card stock. It reminds me of a high quality art print you might be in a gallery or a museum. The image itself is not actually as bright as it appears in the scan- it's more of a soft gray and the borders an off-white.
Just wondering if anyone might have any thoughts on this piece. I don't want to misrepresent it should I choose to sell. Has anyone encountered this image before?
