Portret van Agar before 1877

"Portret van Agar" is a small, black and white photographic portrait of the actress Mlle Agar that was likely created before 1877. The portrait, framed in an ornate oval, is featured in the French periodical "Paris-Theatre" and is an example of how this publication documented theatrical performers of the era. The use of a simple, yet dignified pose and the focus on capturing the subject's likeness are typical of portraiture in the late 19th century. This intimate portrait allows viewers to see the details of Agar's features and provides insight into the world of French theatre during the late 19th century.
