Unidentified Half-And-Half

Well-realized portrait of a split-down-the-middle man-woman performer who wears a well-worn brogan shoe on one foot and heels on the other. He/she makes a muscle on the right showing his chest, while demurely covering up on the left. Based on the painted canvas backdrop and rough floor, the portrait was probably made by an itinerant photographer, possibly on the carnival this performer travelled with.
