Description: Capture a piece of history with this antique Union case daguerreotype featuring a rather large woman for that time period. She has a hat and her hair is down but pulled back and has a purse. From the mid-19th century, this original photograph reflects the style and flair of the Civil War era. The daguerreotype, a unique one-of-a-kind image, measures 3.00 x 2.50 inches and presents the classic documentary aesthetic of the period. Encased in a period-appropriate leather and metal case, the photograph is preserved in a classic glass format, symbolizing the enduring nature of historical artifacts. This single-piece offering is not just a photo but a tangible connection to the past, making it an essential addition for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.The image is in very good condition and very clear. Looks like the cheeks have been tinted and unusual to see a white dress with stripes and not a black dress which was most portrait. Some would borrow the photographers wardrobe for the sitting.. The case is in ok condition and has some wear and is starting to split but still intact. The case is a scroll design and has a clasp and works
