- Title
- Minnie Stunick Portrait, 13 May 1914
- Description
- Dated May 13, 1914, this portrait was produced by the H.A. Meldrum Co. Studio, the high-end photographic department of Buffalo’s famous Main Street store. Printed on heavy art paper, this platinum portrait's lack of a silver emulsion means the image will never tarnish. Wearing her intellectual spectacles and a delicate, ruffled blouse, Minnie presents a portrait of calm, educated poise. The physical texture of the paper gives the image a tactile, charcoal-like depth, capturing Minnie as a woman stepping fully into her own adulthood with a direct, unblinking gaze.
