Nakano Takeko (1847-1868), woman samurai of the Aizu Domain. She fought and died during the Boshin War (1868). I love the flower decoration in her hair, I just recently read about her story ❤️. #samurai #worldhistory #antiquedealersofinstagram #storytellingphotography #historicpreservation #vintageseller #womanwarrior #oldphotos #historylovers #antiquejewelry #1800s #nakanotakeko #vintageshop #japanesehistory #antiquephotography #zanathiavintagejewelry #antiques #treasurehunter #historyfacts
The dealer I bought this photo from billed it as a “nightmarish wicked witch silhouette in the clouds,” and it worked, as we all know how much I love a good wicked witch. But truthfully, I think this is an image of a rather intrepid Edwardian adventuress exploring a snowy mountainside, or even a glacier, and doing so in great style. If you zoom in on her face, she is smiling, which further diminishes any creepiness. #antiquephoto #antiquephotograph #antiquephotography #snapshot #vintagesnapshot #vintagephotography #vintagephoto #vintagephotograph #vernacularphotography #foundphoto #1900s #1910s #edwardian #edwardianfashion #edwardianhat #blackveil #adventuress #snow #snowymountain #mountainside #glacier #hiking #vintagehiking #walkingstick #silhouette
One of these daguerreotypes on its own would be lovely, but to be able to see the same woman from two angles is something special. It breathes so much more life into the sitter, don't you think?

Happy Birthday to Maude Fealy, the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. 100 years ago she would have celebrated her 36th birthday today. We still remember her, for the love she had for acting and theater, and for her haunting beauty. Even though it’s been over a year since I first learned about her, I still find myself searching and searching for anything related to her. She was truly a gem. | #maudefealy #edwardian #edwardianfashion #edwardianstyle #edwardianera #edwardianlady #1900s #1900sfashion #1900sstyle #antique #antiquestyle #antiquefashion #antiquephotography

What a remarkable image. Though records contain some mixed information, it is known that Flora Stewart was born into slavery and was freed around age 60. This picture was taken when Governor Fredrick Smyth invited her to his home and had her photographed in a studio. It is said that her mind was perfectly sharp even in her extraordinary old age. She passed away the year after this photo was taken at age 118. Just imagine the things she saw throughout her lifetime! Via Londonderry Historical Society.
