[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 8890, member: 33"]I think mid-1850s. This is based not only on the clothing, but also on the styles of the mat and preserver (the brass-colored items surrounding the photo). Something about the woman's clothing has aspects a little earlier than that... but since she is an older person, it's quite possible that she was wearing clothing somewhat out of date.
