The Daguerreian Dandy

The proprietor of this modest blog wishes to welcome you to the little 19th century soiree that goes on 'round these parts. You’re likely to be besieged with daguerreotype dandies, hair-raising Gothic Revival furniture, humourous crinoline capers, fair mid-century maidens, saucy postcards, peculiar inventions, melodramatic and tawdry news publication excerpts, a nice helping of American 19th century architecture, mugshots aplenty and artefacts straight out of old Uncle Silas’ curio cabinet.

Daguerreian Dandy is quite fond of steam trains, and especially keen on images of trains in action, entering tunnels, picking up passengers etc. Freud would have a field day, eh?
