Man at Edge of Roof, Old Snapshot with Black Paper Backing antique handmade doll chaise late 19th/very early 20th centuryI lile the composition, and the implied drama here, with this man in his dark suit standing precariously at the edge of the roof, looking straight at the camera. Plus reflections in the window below of what looks like a house or barn and almost like the head of a person, too and it seems the photographer must have been standing on the roof of another structure him or herself, the roof of which rakes across the bottom of the photo. 4 5 8" x 2 3 4"
