A totally processed B&W to see if I could make this look like something from about 1900. I am currently doing a written mini-series on the history of photography and I was inspired to do this.

Nice processing, but I think to give it a more aged look, try adding a little bit more of sepia. I love the black and white as well, but a hint of sepia and maybe softening some of the edges would definitely help in aging it. With your permission, can I give it a go?
