This is a black-and-white photo of a man sitting in a chair. He’s wearing a dark suit with a high collar and a vest, and his hands rest on his knees. The background is plain, and the lighting makes his face look slightly shadowed. The photo was taken by a company in Sheffield, England, in the late 1800s. The brownish tint and grainy look show how old it is. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more photos like this.
