Portret van een echtpaar, man in uniform 1860 - 1900

This is a small format portrait of a couple, likely a husband and wife. The man is in military uniform, possibly a soldier or officer. The photograph, created by Peter Schiefen between 1860 and 1900, captures a formal pose and emphasizes the man's profession. The small size of the photograph suggests it was likely a personal keepsake, a common practice in the 19th century, known as Carte de Visite, to document family members.
