Lot 980: An Early 20th Century Silver Gelatin Studio Portrait of a Bearded Gentleman in an Ornate Giltwood Frame
This large-format studio portrait is a silver gelatin print depicting a bearded gentleman in a three-quarter length pose, wearing a heavy buttoned coat. The image is a formal studio production, typical of the late 19th or early 20th century. The photograph is housed in a period-style ornate gilded wood and composition frame featuring a deep profile with a repeating relief pattern of acanthus leaf and floral motifs. An auction lot sticker bearing the number 980 is currently affixed to the upper left corner of the glass. There are no visible studio marks, signatures, or inscriptions on the front of the print.
