Antique CDV Circa Ploetz Baby Child in Lace Dress Kansas City

This antique CDV captures a seated baby wearing an ornate lace dress, a hallmark of high-end portraiture from this era. The child is positioned with the soft, wide-eyed expression typical of nineteenth-century youth, framed by the intricate textures of their formal garment.

Produced by the Ploetz studio in Kansas City, this photograph serves as a refined example of Missouri regional history. Collectors of Victorian genealogy and early portrait photography will appreciate the crisp composition and the specific historical connection to the Midwest during this period.

It is a charming and authentic glimpse of a Kansas City child from the Ploetz collection.
