Sobre este artículo
@1880s. Framed Photograph. Not examined out of the frame but appears to be Fine. Fine portrait of Emerson, image size 8-1/2" x 12-1/2" matted and framed to an overall size of 15" x 20". On the rear of the frame are two labels from Holman's Print Shop of Boston, circa 1940, on which is stated the following: "This photograph was in J. J. Hawes' studio at the time of his death and was stored with the rest of the contents until 1934, when it came to us for sale. It is a photographic copy of a daguerreotype portrait made by Mr. Hawes in the 1840's. The negative was a collodion-process plate ('wet plate'). This print could have been made as late as the 1890's, but more probably dates from the 1880's. When Mr. Hawes made the copy of the daguerreotype is not known." Southworth and Hawes produced some of the finest daguerreotypes of the 19th Century. Among their subjects, besides Emerson, were John Quincy Adams, Zachary Taylor, Daniel Webster, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Hawes died at the age of 94 in 1901, operating his studio up to the end. During the Depression his daguerreotypes were dispersed among a few museums and private collections.
