Carte-de-Visite Portrait of Florence Nightingale

1870List36105N.p. 1870. Carte After the original photograph by William Edward Kilburn 1818â€“1891 taken circa 1854 with later CDV issue probably circa 1870s. Albumen print mounted on card; sitter identified in print beneath image. Standard carte-de-visite format approximately 2Â½ x 4 inches. Excellent contrast with light surface wear. Seated three-quarter portrait of Nightingale in dark silk dress with white collar hands folded over a paper posed beside an upholstered Victorian chair. The image derives from a sitting arranged in London with William Edward Kilburn one of Britainâ€™s early professional photographers and a former daguerreotypist who gained fame by exhibiting at the Great Exhibition of 1851. By the early 1850s Kilburn had established a reputation for photographing members of the aristocracy and prominent public figures.<br /> <br /> The Nightingale sitting happened shortly before her departure for the Crimea in October 1854 at a moment when her name was just entering the public press. The portrait predates her full transformation into the national icon later known as the â€œLady with the Lamp.â€ Unlike later more romanticized images Kilburnâ€™s photograph presents a composed unsentimental likeness more consistent with standard portraiture practices than her later photographs. Following Nightingaleâ€™s wartime service at Scutari 1854â€“1856 and the subsequent surge of public acclaim Kilburnâ€™s image became the primary photographic source from which engravings lithographs and later carte-de-visite reproductions were made.1<br /> <br /> 1 Denis Pellerin â€œFlorence Nightingale: The Mystery Behind Her Iconic Photographsâ€ The Classic November 15 2020 https://theclassicphotomag.com/florence-nightingale-the-mysteries-behind-her-iconic-photographs/ accessed February 27 2026. unknown
