Unidentified Photographer: Untitled (Seated Woman with Hand to Chin)
Platinum Print, circa 1900
No documentation was found with this striking portrait. The unknown photographer has brought us an image of strength and character, although the sitter also deserves credit for her ability to project such a dynamic persona into the camera. Was she an actress… or were the dramas in her life purely private affairs?
