This photograph, "Portret van Alfred Grévin", is a portrait of the French sculptor and wax modeller Alfred Grévin taken by photographer Wilhelm Benque before 1883. The photograph depicts Grévin standing casually, leaning against a cabinet, in a studio setting. The image is printed on the page of the magazine "Paris-Artiste," which is evident from the title visible at the top of the page, showcasing the photograph as a portrait of a notable figure of the time. The image was likely taken for publication in the magazine and is a significant example of the photographic portraiture of the late 19th century.
