A funny and rare one!

An unusual Carte de Visite of two gentlemen who are secretly peeing against a wall. They are looking around shyly to avoid being caught. Second Empire humor ;-)
There is a similar photo in the collection of the California Museum of Photography. The men are in a similar pose and are also wearing top hats. Their clothing is also formal but different from what they are wearing here. We believe these are the same men posing. Probably they are actors.

CDV without a photographer's imprint. The similar print in the California Museum of Photography was published by Bernheim-Jeune, Rue Neuve 42, Bruxelles.

ca. 10,5 x 6,2 cm
