Early daguerreotype of a family group, behind cover glass and an embossed paper, octagonal window mat. Wall frame, with (broken) hanging hoop on the top.
Dimensions of the frame are 6 1/4" x 5"; the opening is approximately 2 3/4" x 3 1/8" .
Contrast isn't perfect, and there are some scratches and light swipes on the plate, although some that are seen are on the exterior of the glass. The back of the frame is still sealed with paper to the front, though splitting in parts, so this should be handled with care and probably re-taped.
If you have any questions, please ask before purchasing.
