Tot esperant la foto / The waiting girl
Precios retrat d'una noia, probablement nord-americana, sobre ferrotip, realitzat probablement a finals del s. XIX.
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!

===========================================
Beautiful girl, probably American, in a tintype portrait, probably made in the later decades of the XIX Century.
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!
