    Description

    This vintage photograph features an adorable little girl with long hair. She certainly is well dressed. The child is wearing a corsage and is holding a bunch of flowers. Her portrait was taken at the Cheney Studio in Oregon City, Oregon. Interest in photography must have been in the Cheney family genes. The web site "The Art of Historic Photos" reports that at least three siblings in the Cheney family worked as professional photographers. Eston Cheney and his sister Edith both had studios located in Oregon City. Sister Ethel was a partner with Bessie Krumm in a studio at McMinnville, Oregon. Eston operated his studio between 1895 and 1901. Another site, "The Historic Photo Archive" has a different version of the Cheney family history. Eston is reported to be the father of Edith and Ethel Cheney. This vintage photographic portrait has corner wear. It measures about 7 1/4" x 5 1/8". The photo was taken in circa 1895 and is in overall good condition (see scans).
