Large Antique French Black hotsell And White Framed Portrait Photograph, Photographer Gift, Antique Wall Decor, Found And Flogged

Framed Antique Black And White Portrait Photo, found and flogged in France.

Lovely black and hotsell white image of an older man which was probably commissioned by his family when taken, estimated age 1920s. We bought a pair of these in identical frames, they look to us like a father and his son, you can see the family resemblance. We have listed them separately, if you would like to have the pair we will combine them for shipping and refund the savings, which will be almost half the price of one of them. Below is a link to the other one if you would like to check it out.

I'm no expert on old photography techniques, but I did some black and white developing and printing at home years ago. It looks to me like the image has been "burned in" around the edges. This is a relatively easy process that is done in the darkroom with the tip of your finger, and I believe that this is how the edge of the image is blended into the lighter background.

Condition: Used Antique - A little marked on the top left corner of the paper (see photos) frame was repainted years ago.

Total weight - 1.5 kilos (3.3 pounds)

We combine shipping for multiple orders (where practical) and refund the savings.
