A black and white photograph of an ambrotype of Elijah H. Workman and who is assumed to be his first wife, Julia C. Benedict, ca. 1867. The image shows the inner part of the case with metal hinges at center, the velvet padding on the right; and the clasps and clasp holes at the left and right edges. The image of the Workmans is at left within a gold metal frame. Mrs. Workman is seated at the left wearing a striped dress with lace collar and cuffs and a broach and earrings that were touched-up in gold. Mr. Workman is seated at right in a dark three-piece suit, white shirt, dark cravat and the buttons in his shirt also touched-up in gold. The original image, which is owned by David A. Workman, is broken into four pieces. Without wear or damage the print is in mint condition.
