Lot Description
[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. Quarter plate daguerreotype of six young women.
Group portrait of six young women posed together in two rows. (Some spotting, minor surface scratching to plate, heavy spotting to mat; resealed.) Housed in a fully separated leatherette case (split at spine, closure hooks missing). The contrast and focus of the image is such that the women's heads and busts appear to be the only things visible, the background undefined.
Early Photography Collection of Jules Martino, Silverton, Oregon
