This photo shows Sophie Croizette, a Victorian actress. Alphonse Liebert took it in the 1800s. It’s a studio shot meant for fans to collect. Back then, photos like this were new and exciting. Actors paid for portraits to sell as “cartes de visite.” These small photos were printed on stiff cards with the photographer’s name. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
