Folk Art Painted Tintype - Happy Baby

Circa: 1860-1870

A remarkable capture and painting! Looks like William Matthew Prior could have painted this one. Because of the exposure time it was unusual to capture a person in such delight, crisply. Plus the baby is fully naked, save for the cloth diaper.
