"Hi
its about the photo and inscriptions on the back ?
There is no record of him doing silouettes (unless I am proven otherwise?)
I think you have a recased silouette unless it is a photographic copy ?"
I have this signed Richard Beard daguerreotype in my collection, which unfortunately not in great shape. Does anyone recognise the markings on the back or possibly recognise the sitter ? Is it just a plate number and name of the sitter ? It is not…
