About this work

This photo shows Marie Litton, an actress from the 1800s. Back then, photos like this were new and popular. People collected them like trading cards. The photo was made with a glass negative. It was printed on thin paper stuck to a stiff card. This method made the photo sturdy enough to handle. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
