Portret van een vrouw met een strik c. 1866 - 1900

This portrait photograph, titled "Portret van een vrouw met een strik," was created by Dutch photographer Johan Christiaan Reesinck, sometime between 1866 and 1900. The image captures a woman in a formal pose, her gaze directed at the viewer. She wears a dark jacket with a white bow, a popular style in the latter half of the 19th century. The oval format of the image was a common choice for portraits during this period, highlighting the subject and creating a sense of intimacy. Reesinck's work often focused on capturing the likeness of individuals in a simple and straightforward manner, making this piece a classic example of portrait photography from the late 19th century.
