Young Girl in Gold, Hand-tinted 19th C. Sixth Plate Ambrotype with Gilding treen dome lid apothecary case (Place it on a standA charmer of an ambrotype and subject! I think, especially special for being hand colored, not just the yellow tint of her dress and pink of her cheeks, but also hand drawn black lines detailing her dress and a gilded flourish at her neck.

Overall good condition, with one black mark coming down from upper left
