Antique CDV Bielefeld Little Girl Hidden Mother Chicago Illinois
This antique CDV captures a poignant portrait of a little girl posed in a studio setting, accompanied by the eerie presence of a hidden mother. The figure of the mother is obscured by heavy drapery, a common Victorian technique used to keep restless children still during the long exposure times required by early photography.
The photograph, marked by the Bielefeld studio in Chicago, Illinois, serves as a fascinating example of 19th-century portraiture. Collectors of social history will appreciate this glimpse into the era’s unique photographic conventions.
A hauntingly preserved image of a little girl and her hidden mother.
