Portrait of a Woman is a 1850 photographic by Crystal Palace Photographic Deparment, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is a black-and-white photo of a woman. She’s wearing a high-necked dress with a checkered pattern on the bodice and loose sleeves. Her hair is pulled back, and she holds a small object in her hands, maybe a fan or a book. The photo looks old, with a faded, slightly grainy quality. It’s not clear what she’s thinking, but her expression is calm. If you like old photos, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
