George B. Sperry (Toledo, Ohio): Two Double Portraits of a Boy and his Dog

Collodion print cabinet cards, circa 1895

 

Found on facing pages of a decaying family album, these images miraculously survived in flawless condition. The photographer has somehow managed to capture matching expressions on the faces of his subjects in each of these portraits. In the first, they appear uncertain and puzzled; in the second, they seem confident and comfortable in their surroundings.
