This is probably the oldest and most popular type of photo graph. A miniature is most certainly not just a small picture. It is a portrait made with far more care and skill and the regular 8 x 10 size. The true miniature shoud be on ivora in oval shape of head only painted in oils and mounted in a sturdy frame with con cave glass. At this time ivora base is next to impossible to secure and the true miniature frames are so expensive that most studios are offering “parchment miniatures’’ of rare quality mounted in square gold frames at very reasonable prices. With the making of good miniatures goes all the photo graphic technique and skill the photographer possesses—for it must have all that extra something which makes you or your child seem real— a little something to treasure always.
