Antique cabinet card photo of famed Victorian actress Sarah Bernhardt taken by equally renowned New York photographer Sarony, who photographed all the greats in the theatrical world at the time. She is dressed in one of her signature bohemian looks- More than just a performer, her striking, distinctive, and romantic taste made her a sort of influencer at the fin-de-siècle. The photo does have some condition issues: At some point its original owner had her pinned to a wall by the top corners and the also cut off the bottom where Sarony’s name is advertised. Someone wrote her & Sarony’s name on the back in pen. It’s possible she was in a frame at some point which would account for the trimming. I thought about framing her myself but I thought I would offer her at a low price instead to those of you who have been waiting for your first Bernhardt portrait.

RETURN POLICY
- All sales are FINAL. I strive to provide clear photos & accurate information for every item, & to anticipate any questions you may have. It is the buyer's responsibility to examine these photos clearly & read the description in full before purchasing. If you have any other questions or require further views, you've only to ask.
- No cancellations.
SHIPPING
- Orders ship once a week. If you need something by a certain date, please let me know before purchasing. I am almost always able to accommodate requests.
Insurance is automatically added to every order for a very small fee, via the service Route. You can waive this insurance by ticking the box at checkout, but if you choose to do so, I cannot be held responsible for lost or stolen packages. I STRONGLY recommend using the Route service: UPS & USPS are notorious for denying claims, especially if a package is lost or stolen rather than broken. Route only requires you to fill out an online form & they pay out immediately without fuss. I make no money on any insurance premiums collected- The service is provided only for your benefit.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
- We are happy to ship worldwide once again! Be advised that there's no way for us to know on our end what your customs fees, if any, might be: Shopify doesn't calculate or charge international buyers for customs fees at checkout. Customers are responsible for being aware of and paying any necessary customs fees your country may charge. I am not responsible for packages abandoned at the post office due to unpaid fees.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
- I do not do "holds," reserves, or payment plans. However, if you need help with financing, many safe & easy options are available to you at checkout, including Shop Pay.
