EDITORS COMMENTS
This studio portrait depicts an unidentified African American man dressed in a formal double-breasted jacket, likely taken between 1870 and 1880. The image was captured by the renowned photography studio, F Wagner & Sons. The man's attire exudes an air of sophistication and wealth, with the jacket's neatly tailored lapels and buttons, and the subtle texture of the fabric. His facial hair, consisting of a well-groomed mustache and goatee, adds to his distinguished appearance. The man looks away from the camera, adding an enigmatic quality to the image. This portrait is a poignant reminder of the fashion trends and cultural norms of the late 19th century in America. The oval-shaped, frame-mounted carte-de-visite format was popular during this time, and the image's monochromatic tones add to its timeless appeal. The portrait is part of the vast collection of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library. The image's heritage value is immeasurable, providing a glimpse into the lives and experiences of African Americans during this period in American history.
