Description
The front of the cabinet card features a young girl seated in an upholstered chair, wearing a light-colored dress with lace trim and striped stockings. The backdrop is softly lit, with drapery and studio props faintly visible, reflecting typical late‑19th‑century portrait photography. The reverse of the cabinet card displays a decorative printed design featuring a detailed illustration of a butterfly perched on a flowering branch. The imprint reads “Angell, East Saginaw, Mich.” against a patterned background. No identifying inscription.
