A small tintype portrait of a man centered within a large dark frame, displayed on a black wall in a studio setting that resembles an art gallery. The frame's subtle golden trim contrasts dramatically with the dark surroundings, while a shadowy figure observing the artwork adds a mysterious depth.

TINTYPES

​It was the 1860s. A decade passed, and the prominence of Ambrotypes began to fade. Peculiar booths, tents, and wagons began to emerge throughout Victorian London, heralding the end of era when having one's portrait taken was a luxury.

 

Innovations, such as replacing the glass plate with a thin sheet of metal, have now made photography accessible to crowds of modest means. For the first time, tintypes offered the common folk a chance to glimpse their own reflection, forever frozen in silver dust.
