Roses in Window (3 of 3) Glass Plate Negative west African handicraft and more recently for PukebergThis is one of three 5" x 7" glass plate negatives in the shop capturing arrangements of roses in various settings. Pretty unusual, I think they are wonderful both as images and objects, and would probably prop them just as is in a windowsill, which is how I photographed them. I believe they probably date to the 1910s or 20s. Really lovely. The slide shows a little peeling and few scratches, I think just adding to its terrific moodiness and aura! 5" x
