Intense Looking Woman with Lighthouse, Beautifully Spare and Stark Antique Tintype cardboard box then 12 pages at theThis is the sort of tintype portrait I love most: stark looking subject, spare (and also quite painterly) sort of image. Here with just the edge of a lighthouse (a painted backdrop I assume) making it into the frame.
