Picture
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.
