Couple On Crescent Moon Early 1900s Photo

Studio portraits featuring whimsical props, such as crescent moons and starry backdrops, enjoyed immense popularity from the late 19th through the early 20th centuries. This Man in the Moon motif, where subjects posed humorously on or near a celestial body, was a common photographic trope used to create imaginative and memorable keepsakes. The period attire of the subjects, including the woman's wide-brimmed hat with a feather and elaborate lace collar, and the man's fedora and suit, suggests a timeframe between approximately 1905 and 1920.
