I think it’s really special to see not only a poorer couple, but also an older couple captured in a portrait. Original source unknown but now available via @wikicommons, this ambrotype from the 1860s shows a veteran from the Peninsula Wars with his wife. A great depiction of well-worn clothing that’s still easily pinpointed to a particular decade. #ambrotype #antiquephoto #ageisjustanumber #victorian #1860s #peninsulawars #bonnet #vintagephoto

Selika Lazevski was a black equestrian in Berlin, Paris who rode the haute ecole at the Nouveau Cirque (1886-1926). Little is known about her life, but she was the subject of a series of portraits in 1891 at the studio of Paul Nader. She took her surname from Polish horseman Valli de Laszewski and his wife. I love the way she is posing in this amazing photo ❤️❤️❤️. #historicpreservation #victorianstyle #zanathiavintagejewelry #frenchhistory #antiquefashion #antiquedealer #victorian #equestrianstyle #oldphotos #antiquejewelry #horsewoman #antiquestore #antiquejewelryaddiction #antiqueclothing #blackvictorians #africanhistory #antiquephoto #equestrianrider
A wealth of social, medical, sartorial commentary in this image from (I think) @wellcomecollection. The little girl pictured is displaying her legs which show the effect of rickets, and her dress is a lovely example of children’s wear c.1880s, inspired closely by that of adults. I wonder what her story was, and what kind of life she went on to lead... #antiquephoto #vintagephoto #1880s #victorian #childrenswear #rickets #medicalhistory #socialhistory #fashionhistory
Posting a letter ✨
I love posting letters, they feel so much more personal than short messages via the Internet. And the feeling of waiting for a response letter to arrive is so exciting :)
