This is adivine Frenchantique preserved quarter plate daguerreotype dated from the middle of the 19th century (1850). It is a portrait of a well-dressedchild, he is wearing a white shirt with a black waistcoastand a beautiful satin knot in his neck, his pants is satin black too, matches with his knot. He is standing up and has his hand put on the top of what seems to be a chair. He is very well hair dressed too.The portrait is covered with its original cover glass, The portrait displays outstanding sharp focus and excellent reflective depth.The frame is composed with 2 sides, one that contains the portrait with a fine chiseling bronze around. The other side is padded with velvet orange fabric ornated with a stunning flower and leaves royal design. The velvet on this quite ornate daguerreotypeis in really lovely condition, with a rich and soft pile in an unusualwarm orangegold colour. There is something so special about these wonderful antique French old daguerreotype. Perhaps it is the feel of the old velvet, perhaps the beautifully ornate bronze work, or the combination of both, but I always have to pick these up when I find them, run my fingers over the velvet, and study every detail of the person behind the glass. This second part of the portrait comes to close the frame and protect the daguerreotype. This is probably why the portrait is still stunning and in perfect antique condition. It contains a hook outside to closeandlockthe frame. It opens and closes firmly. The frame is in wood, it has been engraved by ornated design of flower and leaves and then covered with black antique paper.It is gently timeworn, just as it should be, full of character. A real french treasure from the past, when having this daguerreotype in hand, i can\'t help myself thinking of this child and the story behind. This a real museum masterpiece. The frame measures when opened 6.29\" length / 3.55\" height and when closed 3.14\" length / 3.55\"height. The daguerreotype itselfmeasures 2.36\" length / 2.75\" height.**********
