This print titled "Portrait Collage, ca. 1860" is a mesmerizing piece of art from the 19th century. Created by an unknown artist, this collage showcases the beauty and innocence of children during that era. The ambrotype technique used in this artwork adds a unique touch to each portrait, capturing intricate details with remarkable clarity. The application of color on these images brings them to life, making them even more enchanting. Displayed within a golden frame, this collage exudes elegance and sophistication. Its hand-colored elements add depth and vibrancy to each individual's features, highlighting their distinct personalities. As we gaze upon these young boys captured in time, we are transported back to the nineteenth century.
