Cartes de visite Cartes de visite were popular from the 1850s until around 1900. They were photos measuring about 3.5"x2.25" mounted on trade cards measuring about 4" x 2.5". The photographer's name and address usually appeared on the back of the card. The John Horsburgh cartes de visite that I have seen have many different styles of back. See below. From the examples of John Horsburgh's cartes de visite that I have found, it appears that, unlike most other Edinburgh photographers, he specialised in photographing gentlemen. |
