The coloring on this photo is very interesting. Is this hand-tinted? I've seen some of this vintage that were.
Brooklyn Museum (60 months ago | reply)
Hi di the huntress,
Indeed, they are hand colored. A bit more of the history and processing is here.

This interior looks very much like the Petit Palace - would this be right?

Lovely, after all the French did great things for photography; See Daguerretypes !!!

Hi mystroh,
We just got word back from our researcher, Ed.
Based on our image of the Petit Palais, it does not look like this was taken there. The columns are not the same.
On a side note, the rolling chairs were used as a mode of transportation at various world expositions. See this article from the New York Times.
