Your selection of photos is consistently delightful and entertaining, but your dating of many of those images could use some greater care. The dress that this lovely young woman is wearing dates from the late 1860s, not circa 1890. And the can-can dancers in the previously posted photo are wearing bodices and hats of the mid-1880s, not 1900. And so on....
Thanks for your comments. I've changed the data. As a photocollector I'm not a specialists in dating dresses etc. Thanks again for your assistance. Servatius.

I like the lighting in this one very much, whatever the year - that doesn't matter to me.
