"Native Nude, Circa 1860. Vintage Albumen Print. Cdv Photograph."

Vintage albumen print in Carte de Visite format, circa 1860. Nude study of a young woman holding a staff or spear. The subject poses in a studio against a painted backdrop depicting a classical column and foliage. Photographs of nude Black women in the 19th century are a complex subject, at the crossroads of art history, photography, anthropology, and Orientalism. This type of ethnographic or artistic study was common at the time, reflecting the dominant scientific attitudes and interests of the era.
