Identified only by the single name Marguerite on its caption card, the sitter of this c1894 photoprint is otherwise unrecorded, and the card's details have not been verified. The print carries a copyright notice naming B.J. Falk of New York City, reflecting the commercial studio portraiture of the period, when photographers sold images of their sitters to the public. Portraits of women from the 1890s often show the fashions of the day, such as high collars, full sleeves and elaborately arranged hair.
