Antique CDV Elliott & Fry Barrister Lawyer Wig Gown Robe London UK

This antique CDV captures a distinguished barrister posed in the studio of London photographers Elliott and Fry. The subject is depicted in his formal lawyer attire, complete with a traditional horsehair wig and heavy judicial gown. The composition reflects the somber, intellectual prestige of the Victorian legal profession.

Collectors of 19th-century portraiture will value this piece for its sharp detail and historical record of London’s high-court society. It is a quintessential study of a barrister in full robe.
