DescriptionHand colored stereo image of two nude women smiling while seated next to a stone wall in front of a scenic landscape. Their hair, parted in the middle and pinned up in the back, extends over the ears in thick rolls. The woman on the right is wearing strands of pearls around her neck and she dries her left foot with a towel. This uncased stereo daguerreotype is housed inside a reverse painted passe-partout and sealed with black tape.Provenance
