Studio Portrait of a Bearded Man with Child and Pointer Dog

Frank Currier · Omaha, Nebraska

Date: c. 1875–1880
Medium: Stereoview
Subject: Portrait

An unidentified man and child pose with their pointer dog for the Omaha photographer Frank F. Currier. While the sitters remain anonymous, the stereoview’s mount provides a key detail for the photographer's biography. The printed address of the 235 Douglas Street gallery is instrumental in sequencing Currier’s various studio locations along a single commercial thoroughfare as the city grew.
