Antique CDV Circa Unmarked Young Woman Star Brooch Albany NY

This antique CDV features a seated young woman whose stoic expression captures the formal dignity of the era. The composition is centered on her period attire, most notably the distinct star brooch pinned at her collar, serving as a bright focal point against her dark garments.

Originating from a studio in Albany, NY, this unmarked portrait offers a glimpse into Upstate New York history during the mid-to-late 19th century. Collectors of Victorian fashion and regional photography will value the sharp detail of her jewelry and the classic photographic styling typical of the circa 1860s to 1870s.

A fine example of a young woman from Albany preserved in time.
