Description
This is a late Victorian era circa 1890 cabinet card portrait of a young, stylish, and rather intellectual-looking young woman. She is wearing rounded wire-rimmed spectacles and an elaborate hat, decorated with feathers, ruffles and other decorative elements, tilted at a dramatic angle. Her high-collared bodice features geometric velvet ribbon-work detailing over a textured fabric. I wonder if she was a student at the University of Illinois?
Photographer: The Grand, 105 Park St., Champaign, Illinois
