A wonderfully expressive antique studio portrait of a young child posed with their cheek resting thoughtfully in one hand. The softly draped fabrics, blunt bob haircut, and intimate composition give this photograph an especially artistic quality compared with a traditional formal portrait.
The photograph remains displayed in its original dark presentation folio, giving it a beautiful finished presence all on its own. It would be lovely propped open on a dresser, bookshelf, or antique tabletop vignette.
