A gorgeous portrait

By C.E. Ryan

Cabinet card. 1890s. Private Collection.

I love everything about this cabinet card; the pose, the handsome subject in his flawless attire, and the set-up with the vase and curtain taking half the space in the background. This young gentleman doesn’t look a day over twenty- if he even was- but he was married already. His swept hairstyle adds to the youthfulness.

Photographer: Atelier Muller. Barenstein Weipert. Germany.
