This cabinet card portrait features a well-dressed pretty young woman sitting on the floor behind her baby. It is not clear whether this photograph is a post-mortem image. The mother seems to be half smiling and the baby appears awake. In addition, the photograph appears to have been taken at a studio and not at the woman’s residence. Therefore, it is my opinion that this is not a post-mortem image. This cabinet card was produced by the Lemkie studio in Berlin, Germany. SOLD
