Two of the arms have hooks at their ends that seem made for grabbing and pulling

turned pulls

with one nail a tiny bit higher than flush on front but still going through to the back

there is just an atmospheric-ness and luminosity about them that is its own very special thing

Vase of Bergonia, Beautifully Moody c. 1870s Stereoview impressionist painting Two of the arms haveI love early albumen stereoviews that feel super atmospheric, and this is most definitely one of those, and then some. I believe the flowers are bergonia, as described on the series list on reverse, here placed in an excellent and perfectly complementary leaf patterned vase. Minimal in a great way, with aging to the background (I think glue showing through), which just adds to the ambiance. And mounted on the perfect matte orange card. Lovely. 7" x 3
