The head of this portrait of Sir Sydney Waterlow was copied for a print showing him working as a compositor in Paris. This is shown in this Daguerreobase entry. It is rare to be able to unite a print from a daguerreotype with the original daguerreotype. Sir Sydney Waterlow was a philanthropist, Member of Parliament and owner of the Waterlow Estates. The silver frame is not original to this image.
The frame and glass were added later.
