"Portret van een oude man met medaille" is a black and white portrait photograph of an elderly man, likely taken between 1874 and 1900 by the Dutch photographer Cornelis Bernardus Broersma. The subject is dressed formally and wears a medal on his chest. The image is framed in an oval shape and captures the man's weathered face and piercing gaze. This work is an example of 19th-century portrait photography, a genre that sought to capture the likeness of individuals for posterity and social documentation.
