EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "WOMAN, c1870" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The portrait showcases a striking African American woman, whose identity remains unidentified but leaves an indelible impression on the viewer. The tintype technique used for this photograph adds a unique sepia tone that enhances the vintage charm of the image. The woman's clothing and hat reflect the fashion trends of that era, providing valuable insights into the style choices of African American women during this period. The backdrop chosen for this portrait further emphasizes its historical significance. Against a black backdrop, our subject stands out with grace and poise, exuding confidence and strength despite living in a challenging time marked by racial inequality. A parasol held delicately in her hand not only serves as an accessory but also symbolizes protection from harsh sunlight—a reminder of how people had to adapt to their environment even while expressing themselves through fashion. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully preserved this piece from their collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical relevance. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the resilience and beauty found within African American communities throughout history.
