Precious surreal image, of a kind that sometimes falls under the category of "spirit photography," but apparently accomplished in the open air, and by the light of day. This could be an image of Cupid and Psyche, or of a "visitation," but in any case it is a superbe example of trick photography of its kind, that must have boggled the minds of, or directly inspired, those who saw it in the early 1900s. Examples of this sort of photograph are quite often rare, and much sought after. We have no way of knowing if there is even another copy of this particular image extant, but are certain it will make a wonderful addition to any collection of the strange and wonderful.
Posted from Romania to Paris, in 1907, we have no information on the model (or models...hey, what do we know? It could happen! :), or the photographer.
