"Expression
is
everything
in
a
daguerreotype.
All else,--the hair
--jewelry --lace-work
--drapery or dress, and
attitude, are only aids to
expression. It must at
least be comfortable, and
ought to be amiable. It
ought also to be sensible,
spirited and dignified, and
usually with care and
patience may be
so."

S. Southworth, "Suggestions
to Ladies Who Sit for
Daguerreotypes," Lady's
Almanac,

"Remember
that expression is
everything
in
a
photograph.
All else-- the hair, jewelry,
lace-work, drapery of dress,
and attitude--are only aids to
expression. It must at least
be comfortable, and ought to
be amiable. It ought also to
be sensible, spirited and
dignified, and usually with
care and patience may be
so."

the Camera," The
Philadelphia Photographer,
