Below is an image from my collection for your enjoyment: Charleston African
American Woman. A sixth plate daguerreotype, she is
wearing a simple but elegant black silk dress with a broad white lace
collar and large flared sleeves with scallop edges. Her right
arm rests on a short-fluted column upon which two large volumes have
been arranged. The subject's lips have been delicately tinted red. Image held
in a full leather case with push button clasp closure - burgundy velvet
cushion, nonpareil brass mat with thin arabesque design binder. Imprinted
on each side of the case contained in a fleur de lis shied is
the caption - GEO S. COOK / ARTIST / CHARLESTON
