$49.00 - Product is currently out of stock.

Sixth-Plate Daguerreotype (1840 - 1855), 19th century portrait, vintage case, 2.75 x 3.25. The daguerreotype photograph, developed in 1839 by Louis Daguerre, was the very process that would make history as the first publicly announced and commercially recognized photographic process. This type of image can be identified by its mirror-like surface of metallic silver which, when tilted, may virtually disappear.

Featured here is a 19th century portrait of a stately gentleman in a suit and tie, bordered by an oval gold frame. Housed in an embellished case, the interior of the front cover features purple velvet lining with the imprint of a leaf. Case is completely attached at the hinge and bears two halves of the original closure latches.

In very good condition, with moderate wear to the case, including a missing edge to the front panel, and a darkened circle around the image.
