This photo shows Louise Clare, an actor from the late 1800s. It was taken by Fradelle & Leach in the 1890s. Back then, photos like this were new and exciting. People used to collect these small portrait cards called *cartes de visite*. They were about the size of a visiting card and came in huge numbers. Later, bigger *cabinet cards* replaced them.
