Portret van een baby, aangeduid als Werner von Holtzendorff Falkenburg 1894

Franz Meinke's 1894 portrait, "Portret van een baby, aangeduid als Werner von Holtzendorff Falkenburg," captures a tender moment of a baby lying on its stomach. The image, a simple yet powerful portrayal of childhood innocence, is characteristic of photographic portraiture during this period. The black and white photograph, measuring 82 mm in height and 53 mm in width, provides a glimpse into the personal lives of a family in the late 19th century. This intimate snapshot, now considered a historical artifact, offers insight into the artistic practices and social customs of the time.
