The first pic of the two musicians from 1847 .... reminds me Beethoven had died only 20 years earlier. Holy moley.

The first photo is reversed. You can tell by the order of the pegs, which would never have the E-string as the lowest string, and the fact that the bottom string is the heaviest (an, therefore, the G, a heavy all-gut string) that this violin is being shown in reverse. This picture needs to be flipped. Perhaps assumptions were made due to which sie their hair was parted on). He is holding the violin and bow in the opposite hands you would expect, but t could be he was a left-hand player, like Charlie Chaplin.

I read that photos came out naturally reversed. Somebody complained about civil war soldiers holding their rifles the wrong way. It was a naturally occurring reversal of image.

I am interested in clothing styles of this period. Really tight sleeves on several of the men's jackets. Other men look more relaxed with better fitting clothes, in my opinion.🎉

Is the 2nd unidentified lady dead? She appears to have marks on her face and forehead, her hands are noticeably darker than her face, and her eyes maybe the glass ones they used for post mortem photography.

Glass eyes for PM photos? Never heard that one but it's untrue. Just another myth among many. None of these are post mortem. It is a myth that they posed the dead and painted eyes on eyelids OR used glass eyes so they appeared alive. PM photos are obvious and in a bed or coffin.

A 0,36, trois hommes assez ridicules, chapeaux affreux, puis 2 jolies femmes aux poses mélancoliques à 0'51 et 1'00. La main soutenant le visage est un "topic" pour représenter l'humeur mélancolique depuis Dürer...La première, avec les livres fermés est une "vanitas" sans doute...La famille Cresson évoque pour moi une scène d'un roman de Balzac !

@@krakon6565 Yes and they wore their finest clothes, got shaved and came straight from the hair salon. It also tends thus to give us an idyllic picture of the day, when everyone was well dressed and looking tip-top. Surely there must have have been lots or rags and unkempt beards walking around, and we probably could not tolerate today some of the smells found in the cities of the time.

Regular bathing as we understand it, was not yet common in the 1840s and Indoor plumbing was still largely unknown, making a bath rather labor intensive. Still, there were books of etiquette that recommended that persons of refinement bath once a week, even if they believed it was unneeded.
