"Miss Ninon" is a black and white photograph from the "Actresses" series of trading cards issued by Wm. S. Kimball & Co. in 1889. The card depicts a woman, identified as "Ninon," with her hair styled in a fashionable manner, looking directly at the viewer. The image is cropped closely around her face and shoulders, suggesting intimacy and a focus on her beauty. The card, part of a larger series, reflects the popularity of collecting trading cards in the late 19th century. It is now part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
