Antique CDV Draper & Husted Young Lady in Dress With Hairnet Philadelphia PA

This antique CDV features a seated young lady wearing an elaborate dress and a distinct hairnet, captured by the photography studio of Draper & Husted. The composition reflects the mid-19th-century aesthetic of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, showcasing the formal fashion and stoic mood common to the era.

Collectors of Civil War era portraiture will value this piece for the clear depiction of the hairnet accessory and the specific Draper & Husted backmark. It serves as a sharp historical record of feminine style and studio artistry from old Philadelphia.

A classic example of a young lady in Victorian dress.
