Vintage Antique Cupid Asleep by M.B. Parkinson Framed Photograph: $24.00
Sleeping cupid photo in rectangular frame. In good condition. "Cupid Awake" and "Cupid Asleep" are photographs taken in 1897 of Josephine Anderson, the four-year-old daughter of a friend. Parkinson often babysat Josephine for his friend, a working single mother. The photographs were copyrighted the same year, 1897, and published/distributed by Taber Prang Art Co of Springfield, Massachusetts. At some point in the early 1900s, the Ohio Art Company began putting them in the picture frames produced for five-and-dime stores. People enjoyed the images so much, they bought the frames just for the photographs inside, and the images became very popular. This popularity led to other "Cupid" photographs being created, such as "Cupid at Rest" by M. DeWitt and "Cupid Waiting" by Hughes and Lyday Company.
