Post Mortem Daguerreotype of a Young Child Sitting in a Chair

Item Details

Description

A poignant sixth plate post-mortem daguerreotype in its original seals capturing the solemn yet tender image of a young child seated in a chair. This somber photograph, preserved with remarkable clarity and depth by the daguerreotype process, serves as a poignant tribute to the memory of the child. Their peaceful repose is enhanced by the presence of a lock of hair delicately placed under the glass, symbolizing the enduring bond between the child and their loved ones. Additionally, the child is posed with their favorite toy, adding a touching personal touch to the image and offering a glimpse into the joys of their short life.
