Description

This lantern slide captures a room used by Chansonetta Stanley Emmons, renowned for her early 20th-century photographs of rural life. The space, doubling as storage and a source for photographic props, reflects her detailed approach to storytelling through imagery. Likely part of a slide show for audiences, the slide was hand-tinted by her daughter Dorothy, who often assisted Chansonetta in photographing and presenting her work.
