Austrian boy with very high collar & cigarette. CDV. Personal Collection.
A thick late period CDV of a dapper Austrian boy. He’s wearing a high collar and white tie that together elongate his silhouette. His jacket’s wrinkled but his gentlemanly appearance is complete with a straw boater hat, buttonhole jewelry chain and a cane tucked on his arm.
The backdrop is plain and looks like a painted room corner.
This card reminds me of the German one.
