Authentic antique tintype (ferrotype) photograph featuring a seated infant, likely dating to the late 19th century (circa 1870s–1890s). Tintypes were produced directly on thin iron plates, making each photograph a one-of-a-kind original.

The baby is posed in period clothing on a studio chair or cushion, with clear facial detail and strong period character.
