Wonderful original antique photograph depicting a family posed outside their rural home, circa 1890s.
This is an especially appealing slice-of-life image with an abundance of period detail. Several family members are positioned around the property, including a woman standing beside a saddled white horse, another woman and man in front of the house, and an older bearded gentleman seated near a dog on the porch. The large old frame farmhouse, porch, shutters, mature trees and landscaping make an excellent backdrop.
A particularly nice image for collectors of early photography, rural Americana, horses, dogs, Victorian-era domestic life, farmhouses and social history.
Photograph measures approximately 9.25 x 7.5 inches and is mounted on a 12 x 10 inch card.
No photographer’s mark or identification found.
Condition: Photograph itself is overall quite nice for its age with expected light fading/toning and minor surface wear. The large mounting card shows considerable age spotting, staining, discoloration and edge/corner wear. Please see photos for condition and wonderful period details.
