[Imagerie Franklin] c. 1876 - 1880

This is the cover of an album, “[Imagerie Franklin]”, likely created in the late 19th century. The worn-out binding with the simple, elegant "ALBUM" inscription printed on a red label speaks to its age and likely use. The album was intended to hold personal photographs, letters, and other keepsakes, serving as a visual record of its owner’s life. While the creator is anonymous, this kind of album represents a popular and intimate form of visual storytelling during the Victorian era.
