Pearl04f, 1870s carte de visite by John Ernest Palmer of Plymouth Devon
A fantastic well-lit portrait from a medal winning photographer. Subjects were often advised to look into the middle distance so this image of an older man looking directly at the camera has a very modern feel. He has a bushy chin beard and wears a jaunty bow tie.
