Woman in an Apron with Flowers - Tintype

What a day at the monthly antique show! This is a strange tintype. A woman wearing an apron looks down at a bouquet of flowers. A bunch of flowers are pinned to the front of her apron and her hair is in some disarray. It is not your usual neatly dressed and carefully coiffured portrait subject. Is she the studio maid or the photographer's mother pressed into service for a test tintype?

 

I'll post more of the nine images tomorrow.
