Woman by Cooley
SOLD March 2005 |
Sixth plate daguerreotype of woman, stamped on mat "COOLEY". Housed in a half case. With light applied color to cheek and lips.
Unusual composition with a chair-back surrounding the sitter's shoulders. This image was most likely produced by the Otis H. Cooley of Springfield, Massachusetts.
