Portrait of Young Girl

Olivier said:
Cette petite fille ne fait vraiment pas ses 156 ans... Elle sera certainement devenue une belle personne. Une pensée pour elle, quel qu'ait été son destin, et merci à monsieur Daguerre, qui aura permis à ce joli sourire d'arriver jusqu'à nous.

Thanks very much for your comment. It really is remarkable to look back through the years at this moment captured in time. I hadn't really looked at this image before. Thank your for bringing it to my attention. I am so glad you did.
Diane Watrous said:
Her personality just bursts through. I am uncomfortable with her presentation. I don't know why the photographer posed her in such a seductive way. What was he thinking for such a little girl.
