1850s, 1/6 ambrotype in half of a case that has been converted to a wall frame with an old hanging loop affixed to the back.
Also included are three pages, front and back, of handwritten mourning poetry that were purchased along with this photo, possibly written by the child's mother. I didn't research
the words, so I don't know if the writing is original work or not.
Ambrotype is behind heavy brass mat and glass. In overall VG antique condition with some age related discoloration, and some specks and stuff underneath the glass.
