1/10 full image
I'm guessing this is a family portrait of a mother and daughter?
In addition to the main subject matter, part of the joy I have with these images is examining the little details tucked away in the background: the wallpaper pattern, the pump organ, the stack of paper in the corner of the room, something about them really makes feel like I'm traveling through time.

1/10 detail Here's a cropped detail from the above 4x5 glass negative. I think this is a masterful and captivating portrait. For me, there's a youthful optimism visible in the expression of the (presumed) daughter as she's looking off into the distance and a world-weary expression of the (presumed) mother on the right looking right into the camera. #Photography #History #GlassNegatives #MonochromeMarch

@jeremyosborn@mastodon.art Wow, that's spectacular, especially for a "flawed" one! There's so much detail.
