Minnie! Signed 1872 Graphite Portrait with Miniature Portraits on Necklace and Earring soluble blue pigment The back features the original

The back features the original Diö Slöjd sticker and "Made in Sweden

with the beaver allowing for a good grip

which I admit I have not read

showing plenty of rusting and erosion

and this is quite an old one

Minnie! Signed 1872 Graphite Portrait with Miniature Portraits on Necklace and Earring soluble blue pigment The back features the originalI really really love this Minnie, who looks to me maybe 15 years old or so, both lovely and awkward and seeming right in the middle of coming into herself. I also love that this is something of a triple portrait, with miniature portraits at her neck and hanging from her ear. Wonderfully earnest and clearly invested with love, right down the carefully inked Spencerian "Minnie" at bottom center. Signed Ida J. Tracy at lower left and dated Feb 7, 1872 at
