Alluring ninth plate daguerreotype of a young woman in a thoughtful pose, with her hand delicately resting on her cheek.  Her lovely soulful eyes are mesmerizing and immediately engage the viewer. She is wearing a stylish black gown with billowing sleeves and gorgeous lace highlights. The image is in excellent minus condition with strong tones and contrast. There are couple small spots as seen and we suspect with a distilled water soak some of these might vanish. The image had old seals and we resealed the image with a new glass and it is housed in a full leather case.   Sold
