The scrolly thing at upper left is more or less identified as an 1888 design, but the card certainly has elements of early 1890s particularly the bamboo plants which were a favourite then :)

All

Thanks so much

So - I'm consolidating - woman in her late teens/early 20's and photo prpobably taken early 1880's. However, due to shape and backing this is most likely a reprint which was done in the late 1880's - mid 1890's and quite possibly the sitter had passed away at the time of the reprint.

Once again, thank you all so much for sharing your knowledge.
