Black and Ragged Edges

I have noticed that the glass plate look is making a comeback among art photographers today, with emulation of these kinds of effects in border treatment, and a hand-finished, "worked-over" appearance.

This is a lovely and evocative image, by the way.

Haunting features and expression. Like a painting.

Gertrude Käsebier?

So is this Gertrude Käsebier Jr.?

[Gertrude fille, yes. - Dave]
