This is a CdV that I got at the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.
Carl Korner of Stavanger is the photographer. Stavanger is an area in Norway.
This woman certainly shows off a beautiful braid. Her dress looks like it may have dropped shoulders.
If it were a photo taken in America I would guess it was from the 1860’s however since it is foreign I haven’t a clue.
This is the back of the photo.
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)
A beautiful braid indeed!
ReplyDeleteSome information about the photographer:
ReplyDeleteKörner, Carl (f.1849 - d.1936)
German photographer that came to Norway in the 1870s, first to Bergen, then to Stavanger. He was perhaps the most reknown photographer in Stavanger in the period. He was located:
Kirkegaten 21 1878 - 1887
Kirkegaten 30 1887 - 1918
Kongsgaten 29 1893 - 1894
So the photo must be from after 1878.
I look in the mirror at what I am wearing today and what my hair looks like and then I see this very dapper woman! Lovely photo!
