An American cabinet card portrait of a young man in a three-piece suit, photographed circa 1890 by Rutledge Studio , located on South Main Street, Kokomo, Indiana . The young man stands in a classical studio setting with a decorative column and painted background — typical of the late Victorian portrait style in the United States. On the back is written in ink: “Mrs. Lindsey Wilburn,” presumably a later annotation indicating family origins.
The sepia discoloration and light edge damage give this piece a beautiful patina of age and authenticity.
Technique: Silver albumen on cardboard ( cabinet card ) Dimensions: approx. 16.5 × 10.8 cm Condition: Good; signs of use, stains and light folding marks at the top Origin: Kokomo, Indiana, USA
The Rutledge studio was one of the typical portrait studios that flourished in American provincial towns in the late 19th century. The combination of formal pose, fashionable clothing and slightly melancholic gaze makes this an atmospheric document of a bygone era.
