Jeanette L. Norman Papers, (7 folders, 1908-1937)Scope and Content
This portrait is likely from the early to mid-20th century, capturing a woman with neatly styled short hair, indicative of the 1910s-1920s fashion. The cardstock mount suggests it was meant for formal presentation or keepsake purposes. The condition of the photograph shows aging, with visible discoloration, minor tears, and a crease across the image. The background of the portrait is softly blurred, focusing attention on the subject.Context
A sepia-toned photograph of a woman dressed in early 20th-century attire, mounted on a cardstock frame. The photograph appears to be a studio portrait with an oval vignette effect, a common photographic style in the early 1900s. The woman has a composed expression and is wearing a blouse with a light-colored shawl or scarf. The image has signs of wear, including a horizontal crease across the middle. The studio imprint "CHARLES T. COOK" is faintly visible in the lower right corner.Collection
