Answer: Third-person

Step-by-step explanation:

However, careful reading reveals that the point of view is actually third-person omniscient. How do we know? The narrator refers to himself as "I" at several points throughout the story.

Suddenly, our understanding of the point of view changes. The narrator isn't that involved in the story at all. Daisy is never given the opportunity to speak for herself, and everything we know about her, we learn through somebody else. Winterbourne’s perspective isn’t trustworthy, but neither is the perspective of our omniscient narrator.

The point of view in Daisy Miller is first person because the narrator uses "I" to describe herself.
