Carte-de-visite
One carte-de-visite photograph of Phidelia A. Craig of Detroit. The photo shows a head and torso image of a middle-aged woman who is seated in a chair. Her right elbow is resting on a chair arm and her right hand touching the right side of her neck. Her left arm is resting in her lap. She has dark-colored hair that is arranged in a plain style and is wearing wire-rimmed glasses with small, oval-shaped lenses. She is wearing a dark-colored dress that has a close-fitting white lace collar, long sleeves with plain cuffs, and a row of buttons down the center front of the bodice. A long (pocket watch?) chain extends from the front of the collar to a pocket on the lower left side of the bodice. Black printed text on the verso reads "G. Grelling, Artist, Detroit." Handwritten black ink text reads "Phidelia Artemisia Lyon Craig, Grandmother Craig."
