Antique Cabinet Card W H Cornell Travelling Photographer Young Woman Curly Hair

This antique cabinet card features a striking portrait of a young woman with voluminous curly hair. Captured by the lens of W. H. Cornell, a travelling photographer, the image reflects the itinerant studio practices of the late 19th century. Her elaborate hairstyle and formal attire provide a window into the aesthetic sensibilities of that era.

Collectors of professional photography will appreciate this piece for its connection to nomadic lensmen who brought portraiture to rural communities. This portrait serves as a distinct historical artifact documenting the craft of a travelling photographer.
