Calotype or talbotype is an early photographic process introduced in 1841 by William Henry Fox Talbot, using paper coated with silver iodide. This process uses a paper negative to make a print with a softer, less sharp image than the daguerreotype.

This is probably a salted paper or calotype photograph made using processes invented by William Henry Fox Talbot ca.1840. What attracted me to it are the streaks indicating the brushed-on sensitizer. The “handmade-ness” of this photograph is splendid.
