This is not a painting. One of my favorite historical photos of all time. The photograph was taken in 1911 by Francis James (FJ) Mortimer FRPS (1874-1944) a pioneer of pictorial photography. The sea his favorite subject, captured the shipwreck Arden Craig, a three-mast wheat ship that crashed into the rocks with nine feet of water after the captain became disorientated in heavy fog.

Tintype of a group of barefoot sailors at ease, c. 1870s

#I love images like this where there's such a jolting contrast between modern-looking elements and very period-specific elements #like center front guy's casual pose and t-shirt wouldn't be out of place on a modern man but then MASSIVE MUTTONCHOPS #and his buddy on the left—did this guy straight up rip the sleeves off his naval uniform?! punk's not dead... punk's not even born yet #19th century #19th century men #19th century fashion #sailors #men's fashion #fashion history #historical fashion #19th century photography #tintype #ferrotype #1800s #1870s

Found the perfect 1890s album page for my carte de visites of three Arctic veterans: John Hillary Allard, Leopold McClintock and George Strong Nares. They all went on search expeditions for the Franklin Expedition. Nares later led the British Arctic Expedition 1875.

LOOK AT THESE GUYS 😂

1850s Naval Officer

Is his tye miwackulous enough, @clove-pinks ?

I acquired a small collection of carte de visites of Naval Officers and this charming gentleman features 5 times at different stages of his career. On the back of the above portrait it says "29 years" old.
