Scope note
Card photographs, generally portraits, which measure 4 1/4 by 6 1/2 inches, including the mount. They were introduced by F. R. Window in 1867 as larger alternatives to the "cartes-de-visite," which measured 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches. The larger size was considered more appropriate for display, allowed for group portraits, and permitted the image to be retouched. The size remained popular until World War I.
English
Kaartfotod, enamasti portreed, mille mõõtmed koos raamiga on 4 1/4 x 6 1/2 tolli. Need võttis kasutusele F. R. Window 1867. aastal suuremõõdulisema alternatiivina visiitfotodele, mille mõõdud olid 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 tolli. Suuremat mõõtu peeti fotode väljapanekuks sobilikumaks, need võimaldasid grupiportreesid luua ning lasid fotot retušeerida. Formaat oli populaarne kuni Esimese maailmasõjani.
