SIXTH PLATE TINTYPE OF A PENSIVE YOUNG AFRICAN AMERICAN GIRL FROM THE EARLY 1860s




The young subject is looking slightly away from the camera with a rather evocative expression in this Sixth-plate cased tintype (about 2 1/2 x 3 1/4 in). Nicely hand-tinted.

The emulsion of the tintype has some marks & spots on both sides of the figure but it does not really affect the attractiveness of the portrait. The image is unsealed. The image is in a full, pressed-paper covered case with minor wear on the edges, corners, etc. The girl wears a ring on her finger that is highlighted gold.




The scan below shows the cased image and some enlarged detail:
