Artful quarter plate American daguerreotype of a woman with freckles, perhaps by Brady, New York. In a full case with some wear to exterior edges.   ( Inventory# ia561 )

This fine plate bears on its reverse a coating of yellow wax sometimes associated with the studio of Matthew Brady. In any case it shows a high level of skill in composition.
