Studioportret van twee onbekende vrouwen before 1900

This is a photographic print from the late 19th century by the Franklin Engraving and Electrotyping Co. depicting two unknown women, possibly sisters or friends. The image on the left shows a woman in profile, with a fashionable dress and hat, holding a cane. The right side shows a woman in a darker dress, covering the eyes of the other woman with her hands. This intimate portrait captures a moment of playful interaction between two women and is a valuable window into the fashion and social customs of the Victorian era. The print, measuring 164 mm x 127 mm, is a testament to the detail and artistry of early photography, documenting everyday life through the lens of the camera.
