Their expressions are identical and it\u2019s hard not to smile at the somewhat dumbfounded look on their faces.\u00a0 Still, we are sure this was a truly cherished image especially for the lad in later years. Grandma wears a cool plaid top with a traditional dark skirt and black lace gloves. It looks like a mourning pin at her collar and possibly of her husband in the past. The blonde-haired boy wears an outfit that we have often seen. The plate is in very good condition with bright tones and nice contrast. There are some mat marks on the perimeter. We have resealed it with a new glass. It is housed in a nice full \u201cIntertwined Stars\u201d, Berg 4-38, with a butterfly velvet mat and a repaired hinge.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-8-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: var(--theme-palette-color-5, #DFDFE2);\" class=\"stk-highlight\"><span style=\"color: var(--theme-palette-color-5, #DFDFE2);\" class=\"stk-highlight\">Opening bid $<\/span><\/span>40<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"627\" src=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15-1024x627.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15-1024x627.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15-150x92.jpg 150w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15-768x470.jpg 768w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15.jpg 1346w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"765\" height=\"816\" src=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15a.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5004\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15a.jpg 765w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15a-140x150.jpg 140w, https:\/\/capitolgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/lot15a-281x300.jpg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 765px) 100vw, 765px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lot 15 Classic sixth-plate daguerreotype of a grandma posed with her grandson.
