This rare 1902 vintage real photo postcard showcases an exquisite sculpture of a “Young Girl at Seventeen” by the talented artist Ernst Seger. Seger was a notable sculptor known for his ability to capture the delicate beauty and innocence of youth in his works. His sculptures often depicted young women in graceful poses, reflecting the artistic trends of the early 20th century. The sculpture is a prime example of his skill in creating lifelike and emotive figures.
Of historical significance, real photo postcards (RPPCs) were a popular form of communication and art in the early 1900s. Unlike typical printed postcards, RPPCs were created by transferring a real photograph onto postcard paper, making each piece a unique and genuine photograph.
This postcard is not just a piece of history but a work of art that would look lovely framed and make an excellent addition to any collection.
