About this postcard

A sepia-toned studio portrait of a young woman standing beside a wooden spindle-backed chair, one hand resting on its top rail. She wears a white dress with a high collar, elbow-length sleeves and a wide sash, a large light-colored bow in her hair and a round brooch or medal pinned at her chest. The plain, softly lit backdrop and the dress style point to the Edwardian era, around 1910, when such posed studio portraits were commonly made as real photo postcards.
