This picture was taken in 1899 and shows a young black woman. The woman in dressed in nice clothes which was somewhat uncharacteristic of African Americans at this period in time. She appears more affluent than what was typical. I don't have any other information about her or her family, so her story is unknown.Thursday, November 6, 2008

That's so interesting--isn't she the same woman from your February 14th entry?
ReplyDeleteBack when I was a young girl, a traveling photographer came to our home, set up a backdrop, and had an array of clothing that could be worn for the picture. He carried a box of fine clothes and hats from which to choose. He also had a fancy wicker chair and all the props to make a fine portrait. Could be the same with this lovely lady.
