Note that painted glass cover is painted in gold and black lines on a white background.
Also the metal case in which the daguerreotype is housed, is made of flat oval grey metal, with a lid that slides off, dimensions 165 x 132 x 11mm.
A small piece of paper within the case states that the plate entered the British Library (which at the time was part of the British Museum) with the Bruce papers.
