Lincolnesque
SOLD November 2003 |
Sixth plate daguerreotype of a bearded gent, anonymous American ca. 1850. Housed in excellent condition full pressed-leather case.
There seems to be a growing collecting specialty of daguerreotypes which "look like Lincoln." This rich male portrait fits in the category as well as any of them.
