What Victorian aesthetic would this be considered?

Curious which victorian aesthetic or sub class this would belong to. Antique Victorian vanity. Joints suggest late century 1890ish. Any input welcome!

Some of many things in a Victorian era scrapbook in my collection.

The Pinterest of its day.
"Read The Other Side" glued unreadable bothers me so much!!
And how about that, a calling card with a photograph embedded in it.

Found this old photograph of a Victorian man

Found this photo of a Victorian man in some thing that I bought, didn't expect it to be there but thought it was interesting. Does anyone know anything about it eg approx date, or if he was anyone of significance? I'd be curious to know

Town Mission Ragged School, Nottingham UK built 1858 for poor children who could not afford an education (prior to compulsory free education in the 1870s)

This is rare in the UK, it's now home to Nottingham Wildlife Trust. If you magnify, you can see the date of the school.
