This 19th-century carte de visite, created by A. & G. Taylor between 1866 and 1906, features a portrait of a man with a mustache. The image is framed by a decorative border of delicate flowers and a dragonfly, reflecting the popular Victorian aesthetic. Carte de visites, small portrait cards, were widely exchanged during this period, serving as a means of social communication and preserving personal memories. The photograph's small size and the subject's formal attire suggest it was likely intended for personal use or to be shared within a social circle.
