Description: In-Depth Description: This Carte de Visite (CDV) portrait, taken by Wing's Studio at 305 Main St., Buffalo, NY, is a fine example of late 19th-century photography. The subject is a young man posed formally, typical of the era's portrait style. The photograph is mounted on a pale green card with the photographer's studio name inscribed at the bottom. CDVs were highly popular from the 1850s to the early 1900s, with this piece likely dating between 1860-1890 based on the card size and studio information. The sepia tone and oval vignette style add to the classic, aged aesthetic. Collectors value CDVs like this for their historical significance, especially those from lesser-known studios like Wing’s. Rarity and Year: While CDVs were quite common in the 19th century, images from Wing's Studio in Buffalo are less frequently seen. This makes it a more unique find for regional photography collectors, especially from Western New York. The estimated production of this image falls between 1860-1890, during the height of CDV popularity.
