Item Details
Description
c. 1863. Tintype. Ninth plate. Housed in a full leatherette case.
Interesting occupational portrait of a farrier or blacksmith posed as if he were in the final stages of hammering a horseshoe to completion. Charmingly, for the sake of accuracy, the photographer or their artist has tinted the horseshoe red to give the impression it is still hot and malleable.
