The truly brilliant aspect of this mid to late 1850's ambrotype is the tinting. Of course, I bought this one because of the blue flowers and ties. If you really look, someone spent a lot of time on this photo. Not only is it tinted in the cheeks, but also her hands and forehead are carefully tinted bringing the sitter to life.
