Photographic portrait of a 19th century man with great moustache and sideburns wearing a long coat and hat.
Back of a carte de visite portrait by Beckett and Willis Scarborough Photographers, with the Scarborough coat of arms
This chap, Mr Cornwall is wearing what we’d love to for this New Years Eve party! Very smart in 1864. Beckett and Willis had a short lived partnership between 1863 and 1866, both continuing their business in Scarborough after the partnership was dissolved.

George Willis was know for his views of Yorkshire Abbeys. Like many other photographers his bread and butter was portraiture. This one is unusual as just these has been cut out and mounted on this carte de visite.
