This photo shows actress Connie Gilchrist from the 1870s. Elliot & Fry took it in their studio. The picture sits between Impressionism and Realism. Before phones, these prints were tiny calling cards for fans. They were cheap enough to collect by the handful. Cabinet cards soon replaced them. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more like it.
