EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases Mrs. Clara Walters, a mysterious woman from the 19th century in America. The photograph was taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown creator, adding to the enigmatic allure of this image. Mrs. Walters is elegantly posed, seated with poise and grace, her eyes fixed on the camera with a hint of mystery. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of that era - she wears a stunning dress adorned with intricate details and layers, showcasing the popular cage crinoline style. The hoop skirt creates a voluminous silhouette while maintaining her refined posture. Her gloves add an air of sophistication to her ensemble. The glass negative used for this photograph has been preserved meticulously by the Library of Congress' Brady Handy Collection, allowing us to glimpse into history through this still image captured over a century ago. Although little is known about Mrs. Clara Walters herself or her background, this portrait offers us a glimpse into the lives of women during that time period in America – their clothing choices and societal expectations as wives and mothers. As we admire this beautiful studio portrait today, we are reminded of how photography can capture not only physical appearances but also snippets of history itself – frozen moments that allow us to connect with individuals who lived long before our time.
