Lot Description

[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. 16 sixth plate daguerreotype portraits of affectionately posed couples.

Lovely portrait of a finely-dressed couple seated, the man's arm around the back of his wife. She is wearing several pieces of gold-highlighted jewelry and he wears a large blue-tinted neck accessory and gold-highlighted jewelry. (Minimal tarnishing to edges, otherwise a crisp image.) Housed in a pressed paper case (general wear). -- Portrait of a younger couple seated close together, the woman's arm resting on the shoulder of her husband, who sports notable sideburns and a mouche. (Tarnishing to edges, spotting throughout.) Housed in a half leatherette case (surface wear). -- And 14 others. Some without cases. Conditions vary. -- Together, 16 sixth plate daguerreotype portraits of couples.
