1850s Ambrotype – A Young Proud American Business Man with Cigar and Top Hat. A Superb Portrait

Description

Looking at this young gentleman, I would guess he is in his late twenties. A proud Neoplean pose to show off his new found wealth to anyone looking his way. This is a super image of a cigar chomping top hat man. Great contrast and clarity. It is in super conditon 1/9 plate mounted in gilt, wood and embossed patterned back. All the spots you see are on the outside of the glass. Just dust. In a half case.
