This was captured by the Pach Brothers who operated in NYC from the 1860\u2019s. The 841 Broadway address would place this in the years 1877-1890. There is a wonderful long history about this photographic family on multiple sites as they photographed everyone from students to the famous. There is a pencil note on the back\u00a0\u00a0of this image that reads \u201chypnotist.\u201d The man with the bald skullcap certainly appears in a trance and the man with the fake mustache is definitely in control of the scene. Now we\u2019re not sure why the cleaning lady is partially visible, sitting in a chair with her broom on the far-right side! If anyone recognizes either of these two actors or entertainers the information would be appreciated. The image is in very good minus condition with decent tones and contrast. It has been pinned to the wall at one time as seen by the two holes. It measures 8\u201d x 10\u201d with the mount, which has a curve.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-7-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-03347660e0020218a21851dd4f8dc527\">Opening bid  $10\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"805\" src=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-1024x805.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-1024x805.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-300x236.jpg 300w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-150x118.jpg 150w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-768x604.jpg 768w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-1536x1207.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lot104-2048x1610.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lot 104 Fun mounted albumen of two actors recreating a scene from their theatre performance.
