This is a portrait photograph by Johannes Gesterkamp Jr. taken between 1886 and 1901. It depicts a Dutch military officer in full uniform, standing with a saber and cape. The photograph, likely taken as a studio portrait, is a classic example of 19th-century portraiture capturing the individual's military pride and the detailed, formal fashion of the time. The sepia tones and the overall composition of the image convey a sense of tradition and dignity.
