The Revenant?

Ves si això de la reencarnació serà veritat... perque crec que he trobat, en aquest ferrotip de finals del s. XIX la imatge identica d'un famós actor, sabeu quí? .... Tom Hardy. Mireu:

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!

===========================================

 

This is a late-XIX Century tintype of an American man... probably from the West. But it makes me wonder if somehow reencarnation exists. Because he's quite identical to a famous actor, wonder who?

... Tom Hardy! Well, in this case, maybe he is a revenant (pun intended!). Look:

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!
