Fotoreproductie van een portret van Wilhelm I verkleed in een theaterkostuum before 1897

This anonymous photo-reproduction, created before 1897, depicts Wilhelm I, the first German Emperor, in a theatrical costume. The portrait, rendered in black and white, showcases Wilhelm I in a turban and a flowing robe, his gaze directed toward the viewer. The artist, though unknown, has captured the monarch’s presence and the theatrical nature of the costume. The piece, measuring 172 mm in height and 122 mm in width, is likely a reproduction of an earlier work, providing a glimpse into the historical and cultural significance of Wilhelm I's persona.
