Four separate cartes de visite make up this set, one each for Mr. and Mrs. Coddington and their daughters, so the family appears as individuals rather than as a group. Small albumen prints mounted on card were the common format of the 1860s, when sitters could order inexpensive copies and families kept rows of them in albums. The Browning Collection, where these portraits are recorded, preserves that practice on a single album page. The pictures offer a view of family life during the Civil War decade, though the record does not name the town or studio.
