This carte-de-visite of Cynthia K. (Chace) Hudson
was made in the
Richard Walzl Studio at 46 North Charles Street
between 1873 and 1881, probably about 1875.
This is a notable image mostly because of the pose.
She is actually
sitting with her back to the camera and her body
rotated
to the left. Although we take such poses for granted
today,
it is quite unusual to see this flare for the dramatic
from the 1870s.
