Antique Edwardian Hand Coloured Portrait Photograph Gentleman c1910 Mounted Card

An original antique hand-coloured photographic portrait depicting a gentleman in formal Edwardian dress.

Dating to the early twentieth century, this large studio portrait has been produced as an enlarged photograph with hand-applied colouring, a technique that was extremely popular before colour photography became widely available.

Mounted on its original card backing and left unframed, it displays all the character expected from a genuine family portrait of the period. The muted colours and soft blue background make it an attractive decorative piece for traditional, country house or dark academia interiors.

Ideal for collectors of antique photography, Victorian and Edwardian ephemera, genealogy displays or period interior styling.
