Sellé picture … from South Africa

Contents
page



A very nicely-posed portrait of William Christian Sellé in his familiar hat.

This was kindly sent by my double cousin Clare (née Elizabeth Clare Trembath) in South Africa, it having come down her family.

The photograph I scanned looks superb, and it’s not quite this Ribena colour: I have tried all sorts of tricks to cajole it into reproducing better, sans interference pattern, and they haven't been very successful.

I don't know the date of this portrait but I guess it to be late 1880s.
