A portrait from the "A. Féréz" photography studio in Formerie, northern France. A woman in a black dress, a large ribbon, and a ruffled hat, her arms crossed as if time has stopped, stands in a quiet light surrounded by flowers. Her expression is not a smile, but rather stern, perhaps a result of trying too hard to pose seriously. However, that seriousness instead gives her a charming, human-like awkwardness. The "unconscious humor" that breathes in the air of 100 years ago is gently captured in the vessel of memory that is the photograph. Floating between flowers and silence, it is a beloved antique portrait that transcends time. Sizes: Large format 16.3 x 10.8 cm / Small format 10.5 x 6.5 cm Recommended for Halloween and quiet autumn displays. #AntiquePhoto #CarteDeVisite #MementoMori #WreathPortrait #OldPhotoMemory #AutumnDisplay #QuietPortrait
