I may have taken 15 minutes to snap the photo the girls’ expressions are typical of bored female models. The photographer may have had to prepare a second wet plate colloidon or something. It is naturally lit from a window. They just look bored. Additionally, since the exposure was long, the subjects at that time were often tied or clamped to prevent movement blur.

 

Why not photo-shop the image and tweak the faces into a nice happy look?
