Description

4"h x 2 3/8"w sepia tone photo. Lelie Dent St. Clair was John F. Dent's sister. In this photo, she was seated in a photographer's chair that had a large velvet arm with long fringe. She had dark hair parted in the middle with extravagant ringlets down to her shoulders. She wore a medium dark dress with a white collar and a small pin at her throat. The dress had voluminous sleeves and sizable buttons down the bodice. There appeared to be a lot of material in the skirt. ************************************ Text on verso: in pencil "Lelie Dent St. Clair" "Lelia Dent St. Clair" In brown print "John Goldin & Co. ...
