About This Item
St. Paul, MN: Ingersoll. Very Good. Mounted Photograph. 19th century mounted albumen photograph. No publication date, likely produced circa 1885 because the address matches the one shown on Ingersolls earliest stereoviews (yellowstonestereoviews.com & luminous-lint.com). By 1888, he had changed his address in St. Paul. Mount measures approximately 9.75 x 7 inches. Series title and publisher information is printed in blue below the image. Photo title and number is in the negative. Verso is blank. Mount has slight inward curvature; minor chipping and wear to edges. Image has a spot of soiling from a dirty fingerprint, otherwise crisp and clean. Overall, very good condition. Truman Ward Ingersoll (1862-1922) was a prolific photographer best known for his stereoviews. Ingersoll likely only made three different trips to Yellowstone, but he is remembered as one of the most important photographers in the parks history. Though the views title exaggerates the canyons depth, the image itself captures the rugged geology and tumultuous river of the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Ingersoll views in this format are rather scarce in commerce. ; B&W Photograph .
