A stereo daguerreotype attributed on the back to Belloc captures a nude woman seated on a chair, depicted in a relaxed and introspective pose. The image offers a rare and intimate glimpse into the artistic representation of the human form in the 19th century. The stereo format provides a three-dimensional quality to the image, enhancing the depth and realism of the scene.

The subject's soft gaze and natural pose convey a sense of calm and reflection, making this piece both visually striking and emotionally resonant. The careful composition, with the subject framed by drapery and positioned next to a table, suggests a well-considered artistic approach to portraiture.

The daguerreotype is in good condition, with some surface marks and scratches that are consistent with the age of the piece. The mat and preserver remain intact, providing a protective and aesthetically pleasing presentation.
