    Description

    The girl stands somewhat awkwardly, not exactly enjoying the tedious photographic process. She's wearing an off-shoulder dress without sleeves, bloomers with a distinct sawtooth pattern, and socks underneath. There's some color in the textiles next to her (not sure how many we're looking at). Her lips look like she's pouting, but it's her eyes that make this image. Look at those eyes!
    SIZE. Sixth plate.
    HOUSING. Half case.
    CONDITION. Modern seals (not by us). Heavy tarnish at left and right. Mat abrasions at the top.
    APPEARANCE. Good contrast. Lovely subtle color to the textiles.
    It's her expression that makes this image.
