Tres hussars / Three hussars
Retrat del que semblen tres hussars alemanys, probablement a finals del s. XIX. Si us fixeu en aquest tipus de retrats, si son militars i també molts civils, sempre estan amb un cigar a la ma. Per allò de la imatge del mascle, i tal...
El sable sembla del model Kavallerie Degen M1889.
Quan vaig començar a fer plaques de col·lodió em va venir la idea de obtenir alguns ambrotips i ferrotips autentics de finals del s. XIX-principis del XX. Realment resisteixen el pas del temps!

===========================================
Three German cavalry soldiers, probably hussars, in the late decades of the XIX Century. Their swords look like the Kavallerie Degen M1889 model, probably Prussian, definitively not Bavarian (there should be a lion were clearly appears an eagle).
The tintypes of later XIX Century can be difficult to date, as the first were made c.1852 and were dominant until around 1880 when the dry plates displaced the collodion wet plates. But tintypes continued as a cheap way to get portraits until the 1930s!
When I started making wet plate collodion images, the idea came to me to get some authentic ambrotypes and tintypes from the end of the XIX or early XX Centuries. They really stand the test of time!
