Sixth-plate daguerreotype of a man seated at a table with a small book on it. Impressed on the velvet pad are the words, "Taken by La Niña", a photographer who very little is known about, and very few known examples of his or her work exist. It's possible they were a short-lived Mexican or South American studio. During research I found a listing for an "Eusebia La Niña", Artista" in Argentina in 1855, but her exact type of craft was not shown.
The dag is in very good condition, in full case. It's no longer sealed, but most or all of the original seals are inside of the case, in bits. The case is complete and intact, though the outer layer of the spine is split.. the inner layer is still intact so the case is in one piece.
