Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Is this photograph "faked" Grandma Palmer
« on: Sunday 31 December 06 10:27 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone.
Could someone have a look at the following picture please. The query i have is as follows
The sitter was born in 1855, her first marriage in 1885 lasted till 1901 and the lady eventually lived till 1956.
Based on her appearance i would estimate her being about 30 years old or possibly a little older but the picture looks "wrong".
The pose and the lighting seem odd for a picture which should apparently date to the mid/late 1880's or possibly 1890's. The picture also looks too "fresh" and i wonder if it has been restored or possibly faked in some way.
I will try to add the later (1955) photograph in the next post for comparison but would appreciate your thoughts. I do not have access to the originals i'm afraid and they have been sent to me via e-mail from a third party.
Thanks
Glen
