France First Holy Communion Girl Monochrome Photo Antique Vintage

This is a portrait of a girl receiving her First Holy Communion in France.
⭐︎First Holy Communion: In the Catholic Church, the first reception (communion) of the Eucharist (bread and wine believed to be the body and blood of Jesus Christ) after baptism.

I believe this was taken in the late 1800s to early 1900s.
The First Communion dress from that era is very cute, and the girl's expression is also lovely.

It is mounted on thick paper, a style popular from the 1800s.
It would be wonderful for photography props or as a retro decoration ♡
