Studioportret van Charlotte Matthes-Doorman c. 1890 - 1895

This studio portrait of Charlotte Matthes-Doorman by the photography duo Koene & Büttinghausen is a classic example of 19th-century portraiture. The photograph, taken sometime between 1890 and 1895, shows a young woman dressed in a lace-trimmed blouse, capturing the fashion trends of the era. The sharp detail and muted tones are characteristic of the photographic processes of the time. The photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the lives of the well-to-do in late 19th-century Netherlands.
