Carte-de-visite portrait of Elise Maurer. She is seated, looking at camera, right arm resting on table, both hands in lap. She wears a bolero jacket over a tightly-laced corset and full skirt.
Elise, also known as Louise Maurer, is listed in the 1871 census as a Housemaid, aged 29 and un-married, from Switzerland. She may be the same Miss Maurer who was a Maid at Pension Wallis, Lucerne, where Queen Victoria stayed in August 1868. -
