Monday Antique Photo, Part 6.3
I love this photo. The couple is well matched, the photo is well composed, the woman is more me-sized, and her gown is exquisite. I wish the photo were clear enough to see the beading on the edges of her gown. It makes me happy to know that a more "stout" woman like myself still has a hope of being this wonderfully dressed.
This photo is actually attached to a three sectioned card. The front fold of the card has a beautiful ornate, embossed design on it and the back fold has a square cut out so that it frames the photo when it's closed. The scan I've attached here was done with all the folds open (so they didn't obscure the photo).
The scans of the other parts of the card as well as the high resolution scans are all linked off of this page.
