Portret van een vrouw met een baby op schoot c. 1860 - 1884

This cabinet card photograph, likely taken by the Dutch photography studio Kannemans & Zoon between 1860 and 1884, depicts a woman holding a baby. The photograph, measuring 99mm by 63mm, showcases the studio's skill in capturing detail and capturing the tenderness of a mother's love. The woman's dress and the baby's clothing are meticulously rendered, and the soft lighting creates a gentle atmosphere, typical of 19th-century portraiture. This photograph, a fine example of the photographic art of the era, offers a glimpse into the lives of a family from the past.
