The daguerreotype was a find yesterday on an annual flea-market and included also a Brewster handheld stereoscope.
It would be great to identify the photographer and possibly also the woman.
She’s wearing highly glossy jewelry (earrings and necklace with pearls) which is unfortunately not visible on the reproduction I made very fast without a tripod.
The daguerreotype is very sharp.
Please feel free to pass on my query to other expert in a search for a possible identification.
All best,
Thomas

Where did you find it?
It appears to be an actress or singer.
I will put on my historian's hat, and try to help you.
Certainly, I can pass along your query to an expert I know.
Regards,
Cynthia
