Girl with her Dog and Cat - Cabinet Card
I love this girl with her two best friends. I have included a close up of to show her grip on the little cat's head. It was NOT going to move during the exposure! The dog Is cooler about the whole "sitting for a photograph" business. I am also charmed by her turned in toes which seem to be because the chair was too tall for her feet to reach the floor.
The cabinet card is by Lies' of Pittsburgh, PA. The light line down the left side is not a flaw but a reflection off the edge of an embossed rectangle in the center of the mount. I have seen this kind of raised area on vignetted head and shoulder portraits where it works well. It does not seem as appropriate for a full frame image like this.
