[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. Tintype featuring a group of women standing outside of a Civil War photographer's tent, possibly at Camp Parole, Annapolis, MD.

2 3/4 x 3 1/8 in. outdoor tintype featuring 6 female subjects standing close together right outside of a photographer's tent with large block letters on front reading "Gallery" at top and partly visible "[Ambr]oty[pe]s" to one side. Provenance: An estate in Annapolis, Maryland (modern typewritten label accompanying image).

Modern printed label suggests that this could be the tent of a photographer who has set up for business on the fringes of Camp Parole in Annapolis. The females, possibly a mother and her daughters, could be working to care for POWs received at this prisoner exchange camp or relatives visiting the camp.
