Beloved Danish author (1805–1875) best known for such classic fairy tales as The Ugly Duckling, The Red Shoes, and The Emperor’s New Clothes. Scarce vintage 2.25 x 3.5 carte-de-visite profile portrait, by G. E. Hansen of Copenhagen, signed under the image in black ink. Some scattered light toning and soiling, trimmed edges, a couple trivial brushes to signature, and mounting remnants to reverse, otherwise fine condition. Andersen is quite scarce in signed images. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
