This is a Cabinet Card that I purchased at the antique shop in Duluth Minnesota.
Thomas was the Photographer in Negaunee Michigan.
They are holding hands. She wears a gown trimmed in lace at the upper part of the bodice and the sleeves. She also wears a rather large bow at her waist. He wears a suit with a vest/waistcoat, and his shoes look brand new. He wears a flower and she may have a flower on the left side of her lacy bodice. I wonder what color her dress was? I will guess that it was dark grey or brown so that she could wear it again.
I will guess that this Cabinet Card was made in 1893 or 1894.
Thanks for dropping by. Do come again:)
Beautiful blog ever...
ReplyDeleteThese clothes are very flattering. Her waist is so tiny!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful dress. I have a Godey's magazine and one of the dresses shown is a grayish lavender....wouldn't that be pretty?
