Description

Scanned studio portrait of Frances Cron Ridsdale, circa 1920. The original photograph is in a leather booklet cover on cabinet card stock. "Barney" is written on the lower right corner, which may be the photo studio that took the picture. The inscription "Frances Cron Ridsdale" is inscribed on the front, in blue ink; the inscription was probably made by Brown family descendants long after the photograph was taken.

Provenance

Notes

The photograph is part of a larger collection of photographs taken and kept by the Brown family. The collection, along with a pair of diaries and a collection of poems, were scanned by Broomfield Depot Museum staff in 2015. The scans were donated to the museum by Janet Justice-Waddington, the daughter of Frances Ridsdale, that same year. Janet owns the original photographs as of 2015; the originals are not in the Broomfield Depot Museum's collections.
