A few years ago John Felix was able to identify the photographer of Emily Dickenson, one Loyal Moss Ives of Boston, based on the distinctive tablecloth he used. My daguerreotype of a silversmith, which I&#039;ve purchased near Boston in 1983, features the same tablecloth. I estimate it was taken 1853-1855.</p><p>It then occurred to me that among the various Boston silversmiths, there may only be one who worked or lived nearby Ives’ studio, and who was the correct approximate age to match the man in my daguerreotype.</p><p>I believe my subject is Joseph Emerson Stanwood (1823-1902) who literally worked across the street from Ives’ studio in 1854. He would be 31 in 1854. I think it is him, although I’ve been unable to find a later photograph of Mr. Stanwood to verify the match.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
