Item Overview

Description

EROTIC ORIENTALIST GENRE SCENE. Stereoscopic daguerreotype by unknown maker. The bundled-up gentleman appears to have smoked his hookah to excess as he seems oblivious of the enticing slave girl who pours him more wine. The viewer however is well aware of her charms. Some hand coloring and gilding. Some loss of brilliance to the surface.
