Alexander Gardner CDV Washington DC Civil War Era Bearded Gentleman:
$100.00
Original Civil War era carte-de-visite from Alexander Gardner’s Gallery, 521 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D.C., showing a seated bearded gentleman in classic mid-19th century attire. The albumen print has a warm, even tone with strong detail, presented on the desirable pink Gardner mount with gilt imprint. Light age wear and minor toning consistent with period CDVs, but overall a clean and well-preserved example. A fine original specimen from one of the most important photographic studios of the Civil War period and an appealing addition for collectors of early American portraiture or Alexander Gardner material.
