D8-111. WHAT WAS THE REWARD? Oxidation touches the child and a few faint brown dots are around her, but nothing can overwhelm the child's intense gaze and firmly clenched lips, unless she kept leaning left and fell off the chair! I have a feeling that her head was in contact with an iron restraint and even though her parents bribed her with a promised treat "if she behaved," the maker realized that if he didn't shoot quickly, the subject would have darted away. He presented the resealed sixth plate, from the Gardner House in Exeter, NH, with a very lively likeness. The kid's dress bounces across the deep, silvery unblemished surface. Her body is nicely reflected. The contrast and tonality are both excellent. The whole leather case is a medallion of flowers. $255
