30 x 42 cm. An original Victorian large albumen plate photograph, reproduced on canvas in high detail digital form.
Looks much better in real life. Please allow about two weeks for delivery
The photograph shows Fundusi ( son of Jojo ), whom I presume to be an African chief . I know that the photograph was taken in the 1880s. I have been unable to find out any further information about this person. Perhaps you know some more about him.
The photograph has been attributed to William Charles Romaine Broom, a keen early Cape Town photographer. I possess the original album from which the photograph came, and only 20 of these canvas reproductions will ever be made. This is number 3.
Questions and comments welcome.
