Most likely taken by an amateur photographer from Germany, this delicate study of what are believed to be Baby’s Breath flowers (Gypsophilia, or Das Schleierkraut) was included in an album assembled featuring a selection of pictorialist works including nicely mounted cityscape, mountain, and marine views, as well as several showing Frankfurt, Germany.
