This cabinet card features an unusual and interesting setting. The photographer, Max Blum captured a close-up view of three well dressed couples sitting, or standing around a table, having coffee (tea?) and cake. The cake appears to be a Bundt Cake. Most of the cabinet cards that I have seen that are similar to this photograph, involve children having a tea party. The Blum Studio was located in Meerane, Germany. The town of Meerane is located in the Zwickau district of Saxony, Germany. The reverse of this photograph has a printed list of awards that Max Blum earned for his photographs. Two of these prizes were earned in 1900 which reveals that this photograph was taken during, or shortly after that year. SOLD
