Portrait Miniature Military Officer Photograph Velvet Case Approximate dimensions: Height - 85mm (3.3") Width - 66mm (2.6") Condition Good with marks indicative of age and usage. This is a nice example of a portrait miniature photograph depicting a military officer, likely dating from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The photograph is set in an oval frame with a gold-coloured rim and a blue velvet outer case. The military uniform featured includes a peaked cap with an insignia, a well-groomed mustache, and prominent buttons, which all point to a formal military attire from this period. The photograph is monochrome, fixed into one half of a closing photo frame. This type of miniature was commonly carried as a personal keepsake, especially by families with members in military service. The clasp on the side of the frame indicates it was designed for easy opening and closing, typical of portrait miniatures from the 1890s to the 1910s. Made from materials such as gold-coloured metal and velvet, this piece is an excellent example of the period?s attention to detail in creating personal keepsakes. The lack of maker?s branding suggests it may have been a custom piece, crafted with care to preserve the memory of the individual depicted.
