Intense Looking Woman with Lighthouse, Beautifully Spare and Stark Antique Tintype cigarette tin A box for storing silver

A box for storing silver diaper pins

and a mix of compasses and protractors that really make me want to start drawing circles

I found these together (along with a lemon) and think they complement one another nicely

brief notes about each print

very late 19th century or so I think

Intense Looking Woman with Lighthouse, Beautifully Spare and Stark Antique Tintype cigarette tin A box for storing silverThis is the sort of tintype portrait I love most: stark looking subject, spare (and also quite painterly) sort of image. Here with just the edge of a lighthouse (a painted backdrop I assume) making it into the frame. Some sort of apron (?) stretched across her lap, wedding ring exposed on those long fingers, cloth in the other hand. She looks a bit like a bird, and also makes me think of both Emily Dickinson and Georgia O'Keefe. 3 3 16" x 2 3 8".
