Antique CDV G. D. Parsons Cross-Eyed Man Copenhagen NY
This portrait captures a striking G. D. Parsons studio image of a cross-eyed man from Copenhagen, NY. The subject is posed with the traditional formality of the era, though his distinct ocular condition provides a rare and compelling medical or physiological study within the standard 19th-century portraiture format.
Collectors of antique CDV photography will value this piece for its connection to upstate New York history and the specific Parsons studio lineage. It serves as a fascinating example of how Victorian photographers documented unique human features, making it a standout addition to any collection focused on local Copenhagen genealogy or early aesthetic anomalies.
A truly singular gaze from a bygone Copenhagen era.
