Portret van een meisje, staand bij een balustrade Possibly 1879 - 1887

"Portret van een meisje, staand bij een balustrade" is a small-scale (84mm x 52mm) portrait photograph of a young girl, captured by Dutch photographer Willem Hooijer, likely between 1879 and 1887. The girl is positioned against a stone balustrade, offering a glimpse into her life and setting during the late 19th century. The photograph’s intimate size and candid composition exemplify the personal nature of portraiture during this era. Hooijer's work provides insight into everyday life and family dynamics through his lens, capturing both the innocence and the individuality of his subjects.
