Antique CDV Circa Lewis Man Mutton Chops Beard Bow Tie Lebanon

This antique CDV features a distinguished man from Lebanon, likely a member of the Lewis family or photographed by a studio of that name. This formal portrait captures a striking gentleman defined by his impressive mutton chops beard and a perfectly knotted bow tie, hallmarks of mid-to-late 19th-century masculine style.

Collectors of Victorian-era photography will appreciate this circa 1870s piece for its sharp focus on period facial hair trends and regional Pennsylvania history. The composition highlights the stern yet dignified character of the subject, making it a premier example of small-town portraiture from this specific era.

A fascinating historical glimpse of a Lebanon man and his magnificent mutton chops.
