Young Child with Mother's Arm and Patterned Drape, Antique Tintype silver print with some orange paint orI love this one for the painterliness of the background in contrast to the bright white of this child's dress, and for the child's face and expression too, but especially for the arm of the hidden mother for me the perfect gesture that balances protective presence and proximity while also just letting the child be. As a mother should. 3 1 2" x 2 1 2", good condition.
