This captivating cabinet card features a young girl captured in the Huntington, New York studio of Frederick H. Lockwood, a renowned local photographer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The girl in the photograph exudes an air of refined innocence and quiet sophistication. Her long, wavy hair cascades over her shoulders, meticulously styled to reflect the beauty standards of the Victorian era. She wears an elaborately detailed coat, finely tailored with textured fabric, which adds depth to her overall appearance. A large, dramatic hat adorned with an extravagant plume sits proudly atop her head. Her gloves, tightly clasped in her hands, and the patterned fabric draped over her lap suggest a sense of composure and decorum. The girl’s expression is serene, almost wistful, her gaze turned slightly to the side as though she’s lost in thought or caught in a fleeting moment of daydreaming. Her subtle smile and delicate jewelry, including modest earrings, reflect a reserved yet genteel personality—perhaps a young lady of a well-to-do family. This photograph originates from the studio of Frederick Lockwood in Huntington, New York. SOLD
