Mid-1850s ambrotype photo of Johan Barratt Dunn (1833-1912), who at the time this portrait was made was the organist for Beaminster Church in Beaminster, Dorset, England. He is identified by the paper note which was found behind the image. I am confident that this is the correct Dunn because this image was from a larger collection of music-related photographs taken in the UK in the 1850s.
Good sized ambrotype with original hand-tinting. The case is 5.5" x 4.5" when closed, so nearly a half-plate. This is a clear glass ambrotype with a piece of black velvet behind. It's in very good or better antique condition. The leather case is complete and intact and in overall VG antique condition with no repairs; the right rail on the photo side is weak.
